The people you surround yourself is important. If you want to be a good person you need good people in your life. This guy lives in a Scandinavian part of the country so there's already going to be a self destructive pathos present but on top of that he works in academia. He is the exact sort of person who would come from that context.

Just more evidence that academia reproduces the status quo rather than encouraging individual thought. Sadler is probably the most realistic example of what a "normal" professor is like. Just a castrated mediocrity who has given up all hope of creating anything of his own so he can keep his substitute teacher job for 20 years. I wonder if he ever thinks to himself what the point of studying philosophy is when all his opinions goosestep along with the press and academia as a whole.
