re: Kiffin having absolutely none of it with the snowflakes

I’ve had mental health issues that have caused me to take time off work. You have to go through the proper channels. You can’t just not show up to work. You need your psychiatric care practitioners to document the issue and then work with your company’s disability insurance. Or in a student’s case, the appropriate equivalent at the university.

I don’t like dismissing anyone with mental health issues as a snowflake. I also don’t like people using mental health as a crutch/excuse when things don’t go their way and weaponizing it.

True sufferers of mental illness do not want to flaunt it to get specialized treatment. In fact, it is extremely embarrassing and we just want to be given enough resources to be able to function at an acceptable level.

That said Kiffin does come across as incredibly insensitive and his response would not fly in the real world of today either. Still, this lawsuit is frivolous nonsense.

If an employer talked to you like that you would absolutely raise hell about it, if Kiffin wants to compare this situation to the "real world"
