The recent surge in racism against Asians has been mostly about verbal and physical violence directed against Asian people. For the most part, Asian people haven't been missing out on educational and professional opportunities because of it.
That's not been the case for other manifestations of racism. There's really no hypocrisy here; you just seem to have adopted this very narrow, binary view of racism's effects and what needs to be done to correct those effects.

Yes, no thanks to you! Apparently being willing to throw away our childhoods studying to make up for racism's effects means we deserve to face more racism.
A system of “merit” simply cannot be built on top of a system of racism. Merit is a nice end goal, but making it merit based when you’ve already made it impossible for some races to get merit is racist.
Personally, I think this is an “as a black man” reply to distract from the fact that you have zero actual response.
If it's about classically suppressed races and systematic racism, it's pretty hypocritical to be penalizing Asians. Especially when recent years have also seen a surge in people pretending to care about racism against Asians.
