Yep.

The absurdity of it all… I do not see how any thinking person could understand, and not be enraged.

I did a bit of a stealth edit, wrote more after you replied here, but basically:

Anger is a gift, when it is righteous, it motivates just actions.

But it is also a danger, because too much anger makes you stupid, makes you do things that will not help the situation, potentially make it worse.

All I can say for myself personally is that self-discipline… must be strong, and diligent.

When death can visit such a dispossessed (or dispossesable) person so easily, making mistakes needlessly is just going to shorten your lifespan, and you must be alive to be able to enact or spur any kind of real and good change.

Thus the anger must be controlled, otherwise, you will lose yourself, in one way or another.

If I can offer a seemingly stupid but effective trick:

Box breathing.

Inhale for 5 seconds.

Hold for 5 seconds.

Exhale for 5 seconds.

Do that at least 3 times, if you need to, wait 30 seconds, do 3 of em again.

By some quirks of our biology, with most people, it does help lower cortisol, and help you maintain focus, be more rational.

Sometimes, in a particularly enraging or terrifying situation… which is still ongoing, you still need to be able to think, or you may die.

Or, just generally, when you’re not in a life threatening situation, it works too.
