He doomed humanity. What is there to explain? He saw in Ellie his lost daughter and he would watch the whole world burn if that meant leaving her to die.
That means crap when you have a family in a monster filled world, and one person might be the key to stop all that. Even if that person has to die.

Joel did nothing wrong.

he literally brought about human extinction because of his feelings

Joel knew humanity was not worth saving.

Would you kill your own mother if it meant saving the world that hates you?

They should have just explained the situation to Ellie and let her decide.

There is absolutely no evidence slicing Eli's brain open would have saved humanity. There is plenty of evidence the fireflies were fucking retards that had no idea what they were doing, and Joel knew this all too well.

Reminder that there's no guarantee that the process would've worked, and the Fireflys are actual, unironic cultists
