Bridgerton

A Netflix series about British upper class in the early 1800's, in which the main characters are black. Praised for being colourblind, despite there are no Arabs, Pakistani's, Latino's, Asians or other non-white characters.
"Bridgerton is essentially blackwashing European history."

"I'd can't wait for that movie starring Matt Damon as Malcolm X."

"Jesus H. Christ, you can't do that!"

"Why not? It's basically Bridgerton."

Bridgertoning

After the series "Bridgerton". To make a play, tv-programme or movie in a historical setting, that not only is filled with historical inaccuracies, but deliberately fucks up historical correctness for the sake of political correctness, so as to a
appeal to a large audience.

"Hey, I hear Denzel Washington will have a lead role in the upcoming "Gladiator II" movie."
"Excellent! What will he portray?"

"A European nobleman."

"Yeah, they're Bridgertoning it."
