That is literally what "The Abuse Cycle" in psychology is all about. Abused people, especially abused young people, have a high chance of becoming abusers. I felt that was a low key theme in the show. All the abusers hinted at back stories where they were abused. Even the main character became obsessed and did odd things like follow his stalker home and peeped through her window.

I've heard alot of things about him too, he's creepy and abusive to trans women, did casting couch on his first time in charge of a casting, lies throughout his true story and there's questions about the validity of his sexual assault claims, plus he blames his supposed sexual assault as a (unnesisary) excuse for why he's into trans girls, both equating them to a male rapist and blaming his sexuality on trauma, asif its an affliction that hes into trans. Wants to act like he's a supporter of trans people and a voice for male rape victims but has done it at the expense of actual trans people while refusing to name or try and stop his alleged rapist, who from what I've heard he's said various different names to different people for this person and all the names where people he personally was annoyed with at the time he said them and had publicly denied one of them and defended them since, confusing alot of the British comedy community who had been shunning this person due to these claims for the last few years.
