I don't resonate at all with linking sadicism to the negative path. The idea of killing is only useful to the negative adept if it remains a challenge and will serve the purpose of further closing the heart until the adept is not bound by any hardships in doing the deed.
Had missed some replies and I think Infinite Unity completely nailed it. I'd add that as the negative adept is itself before being others (which are seen as portions of the self external to the individualizion that is incarnated), it sees no value in martyrizing itself to fit within worlds it won't be well within for the sake of others whom it knows to be itself. It won't deny the self for what also is the self and negative polarity is a tool for freedom.
The negative path is recognized by Intelligent Infinity because there are no distinctions between others and self, and the choice to not forsake the self because others number more ever is valid.
Infinite Unity's point that none of us are evil is crucial to anyone seeking to truthfully understand those on the negative path. It is never unlike yourself, it is a different state of balance of yourself.
