Regardless of his condition?

See this is something I can't honestly answer. I can clearly see why he would want to be there. It is the pinnacle. It could end up being his legacy and the best thing he ever did for himself, absolutely. And he is a great commentator and fully deserves to be there.

But at the same time, when seeing what his current reaction is and how severe it purportedly is, I have to assume that he and those around him knew the extent of his mental issues. Like, they have to know he is prone to these kinds of reactions where he has to completely withdraw from society as a whole to cope. That is admittedly a level of mental illness I have never suffered from. I can't act like I know what that is like. But what I can tell you, from someone who doesn't have that level of an issue, is that I still know better than to put myself into a situation that could trigger me. If his issues are that much worse, then I can only assume that he HAS TO know he shouldn't be putting himself into a toxic environment as well. I also feel like he should have maybe heeded the warnings of those closest to him in regards to the situation. They seemed to know this wasn't a good idea, and I can't believe for one second that someone as well spoken and intelligent as Mauro didn't have a clue of his own.

I still understand after all that why he took the job. Like you said, it's the pinnacle of what he does. I just think that since he had to know what the possible outcome was here, that this was a choice he made, we can't now go easy on him because of it. At least I can't. He made the choice to be there knowing full well this was a possibility and he either needs to man up and deal with it or he needs to leave for HIS OWN GOOD. If this kind of thing has any chance of happening again in the future, then he shouldn't be there. He doesn't need that in his life.

And yeah, I'm aware I'm using alt-right buzzwords. You know I'm far from alt-right, though. I'm not meaning them as an attack, but I find them to be somewhat apt descriptors here. I wouldn't be using words like triggered, or safe space or calling him a pussy to his face because it wouldn't be good for him and would be designed to just hurt him. I'm using them here because we are all outside the situation and they just seem to be easier words to use to explain what I'm trying to get at.

Lord knows, I get accused on here of needing a safe space all the time.
