Math Homework Crackdown 

When the Communist Party of China (CCP) is toying with the idea of limiting the number of hours students could spend on their school math homework every day, much to the relief of millions of math-anxious students and their parents, so that the time could be better spent on non-academic pursuits, or on familiarizing themselves with Xi’s socialist writings.
Unlike the CCP’s dreaded crackdown of its domestic gaming industry, such as prohibiting minors from playing video games Monday through Thursday and limiting their play to one hour on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights, its rumored math homework crackdown is being anticipated by both students and parents.

A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude.
