I've seen it used around fandoms way before social justice came into vogue. When it was used, it was usually in reference to characters' bad deeds being glossed over so they wouldn't look as morally awful as they are.

The nice thing about English is that words can have multiple metaphorical meanings! (Granted, I've seen SJWs accuse people who use "whitewashing" in other contexts of being appropriative.)

I thought it also could be used for that, but since I had only ever seen the race versio, I wasn't sure. Thanks for the explanation!
