I saw him openly berating students in a sadistic way

I think you are bundling everything you don't like and calling it evil.

could you please define this, or elaborate further how the words or actions he made could warrant this use of the word in that sentence? I am confused at the choice of word for this sentence.

I haven't watched the film 50 Shades of Grey, but I read a lot of reviews of the film and the book that were written by ordinary people. I can't recall anyone calling out the male lead for being evil. Why is that?

Having an outlet for rage expression helps to placate the daily behaviors. We should all be thankful Sadists and masochists can live in harmony in the USA without persecution. It grants people the opportunity to regularly unwind that stress and generally be in a better mood and nicer to society.

So comforting knowing these people are everywhere. Angry dog owners who WANT to tie you up and rape you, just don't have the balls.

Not sure why you would consider all sadists evil.
In a caring S+M relationship, the submissive CONSENTS. It's done willingly and joyfully, how is that evil?
Simply because you don't understand because you ate not wired that way doesn't make it wrong, just different.
I would agree however a sadist inflicting pain on someone unwilling could perhaps be considered evil. But to a willing receiver, it can simply be great sex. Nothing more, nothing less.

But getting back on topic I don't agree with the OP's usage of the word sadistic in reference to college professor berating his students verbally, which was my whole beef anyways. Profusion, if you cannot even remember what he/she said, please be certain to use correct words in your sentence structure next time. Mildly abusive or harassing would make more sense.
