This should be a reminder everyone to guard your reputation. It doesn’t matter if Hans cheated this time. He cheated in the past which tarnished his reputation

This should be a reminder everyone to guard your reputation. It doesn’t matter if Hans cheated this time. He cheated in the past which tarnished his reputation so now no one knows what to believe. Always do the right thing to the best of your ability. Additionally, and importantly, fitting in and doing the right thing are NOT the same thing, though many people conflate the former with the latter as a moral shortcut. Doing the right thing is hard and Hans is going to have to do a lot of growing to get past this moment. His lawsuit suggests he’s not there yet.
