I mean this is pretty much what happened with myself and Big Al. We grew up and no longer had the time, energy, or immaturity to validate his behavior so we slowly distanced ourselves until we finally broke ties due to his behavior. It even happened to a few of his moderators. Unfortunately, a lot of people in his discord are *not* attached to reality in that way. A lot of them are extreme degenerates who live in their own online fantasy world reminiscent of The Veldt. They'll always be there to enable him because they have nothing else. The Princess Kooh crowd, in other words.
Also I didn't comment on this before because I didn't see it, in regards to the 4k: I'm pretty sure it didn't entirely come from his mother. He does have other family members who are more well off than she is. I suspect it was a combined effort. Doesn't make it any better or maybe it does? But yeah, I don't think his mother can pull that much cash. At least, she couldn't back when I talked to him. Her business was barely more than a passion project (she had regulars and was established, sure, but not like...HUGE earnings or anything) and her now dead husband was the one who paid for everything pretty much.
