Well yeah, now they don't have a scapegoat for if they fail.

The dog that caught the car.

Read the article, it works the other way for them.

I did read the article. You tell me how they're not the dog that caught the car. These reactionary Asian parents got what they wanted and now there will be fewer black kids admitted to top universities, but they're still driving their own kids to ever higher suicide rates. Paying even more for private tutors. Demanding even more extracurriculars, even more cram schools. Asian-American parents are prisoners-dilemma-ing their children into misery with little to show for it because in their effort to dismantle one of the few policies that was working to reduce the systemic racial education gap in our society, they never once noticed that the systemic racism that also affects them is the same reason their kids still aren't going to be CEOs or senators.
