When you are racist against people then they will likely become racist. It isn't a threat, that is just how the world works. You can't just impose policies without evaluating them holistically, if you don't take into account that the people you are racist against might become more racist then you aren't doing your job properly.

I assume you're referring to the practice of requiring higher scores for Asian students? And then doing away with the standardized tests altogether when it got too hard to get the outcomes you want? That active racism?

Maybe I am misunderstanding your comment or I didn’t do a good enough job writing mine. I was simply trying to put myself in that position and analyze what I might be feeling and then extrapolate that to what overall affect there might be to society.
But why threaten to become a racist particularly?
We need discourse, demonstrations and solutions, that insititions should very well look for and nuture young talent from wherever it may come from.
But to threaten to be actively racist, without ecploring any other solution is truly telling.
