I'm glad your son is doing better and has a diagnosis.
I think of IM as I do critical race theory.
It's a real area of study that describes laws, policies, etc. that keep minorities down. It was then taken/extended depending on your point of view by other disenfranchised groups like LGBTQ, women, etc., until it became a euphemism of the ignorant who didn't really want to know its meaning but used it as a cudgel.
Sadly, that is what often happens to real scientific vocabulary/research. Pop culture grabs it and weaponizes it.
