mainstreaminization 

Something that the greedy capitalist scum fucks at the top of our unsustainable corporate culture have bought out.

COUNTRY MUSIC! used to be about working people, now its about BULLSHIT. HIP HOP AND RAP, used to be about african american culture and showing the world what it is like being black in america. Now it is about bling, bitches and money because the music industry thinks they can make more money selling shit that will perpetuate stereotypes rather than smash them. Nashville, Branson, Memphis, hip hop and rap have undergone mainstreaminization.

mainstreaming 

The act of a vampire trying to fit in with human society, such as drinking synthetic blood while being able to be around the human population. Refraining from feeding from humans while in social situations.

While at Fangtasia, Bill told Pam he hadn't been around much, as he had been mainstreaming. (characters from True Blood)

Mainstreamisation

Mainstreamisation is the process of bringing something—an idea, practice, technology, or group—into general acceptance, making it common, popular, or part of the accepted "mainstream" of society, often involving adoption by large numbers and the like.

The Mainstreamisation of anime into American popular culture was a gradual one which only grew stronger by the mid 2000s and beyond.
