The anger release and management thread

[Mashika]

There's not much here, but i thought that maybe if you feel angry or frustrated or in any way have to yell to release some of that stuff you can come here and do it freely

I think this is not about having a rant of any kind but more like just reply with a single word or a very short sentence about what the core issue is

Me for example:

Pain illness and lack of freedom

Also you can use this picture as many times as your frustration allows or needs lol

Are you for real?

I mean really? Because I'm really efing pissed off.

I had a conversation two days ago with three beautiful intelligent people. A young college girl who is smart and lovely and beautiful. A young mother of 22 who is kind and thoughtful who really listens when you talk. And a good looking young man of 20 who smokes pot works as a waiter while paying his way through college.
They all have so much to offer this world.

But they probably won't, because all three of them are vaccinated with multiple covid jabs.

They don't have a efn clue.

The only red pilled person I've met in this new city I live in is a paranoid schizophrenic who thinks everybody is out to get her and is impossible to talk with.
But at least she was smart enough not to get the jab.
It turns out being a paranoid schizophrenic can actually be good for your health. Go figure

I will submit that there is a litmus test for how brainwashed you are.
People who can sit through an entire Alex Jones pod cast are probably alright.
Those that say they just can't handle his voice or his emotional contact during tirades.
That is code for I'm getting triggered by this guy who won't sugar coat the truth in comedy and or baby steps.
It is code for this sh!t is going against my television created brain washing and he is triggering my defense to protect the fake world view I have.


I would love to talk about what we are going to do when fifty percent of the population or more dies in the next five years. The socio ramifications are apocalyptic.
Will any kind of society as we know it survive if no new attacks are made on the population?
Or was the covid vaccine enough to destroy society all in it's own?
What countries are the most jabbed?
Which countries are the least jabbed?
Should we sell our house given that supply will out source demand in the next few years?
Are precious metals gonna matter?
What about nuclear power plants?


I would love to ask these questions but it is apparently not polite to do so in front of mother f#ckers who are already jabbed and don't want to hear this sh!t.

I'm sick of people telling me there is plenty of room for folks on this planet when I say there is a depopulation agenda going on.
The Texas sized trash heap called from the Pacific ocean saying it only plans to get bigger thank you for your contribution.

I want to cry when I ask a simple question like " what do you think of Elon Musk taking over Twitter" and a seemingly intelligent well mannered individual losses their sh!t while rabidly spewing CNN talking points.

I'm a white guy who felt totally comfortable in hip hop clubs in the nineties.
Now I instantly feel uncomfortable when coming face to face with a black person I don't know.
The division driven between races is real in the US.
It shouldn't be like this.

Let me know if this is too much and I'll erase it or someone else can with no complaint from me.

This is a good one, but it made me laugh 😂 😂😂It made me laugh, too. But we all have to find ways to separate ourselves from the reality of videos or gifs that seem amusing but almost certainly show people getting badly injured or worse. (I nearly posted a bunch of gifs showing people cutting down trees that then fell on their house, and then thought better of it because after a few seconds of smiling they just stopped being funny.)

But I'm on a roll, too. Here's more.

...recently I have felt like I did in my first few years of public school.

I sit quietly and watch people express extreme emotions.

One teacher that recognized my intelligence and kindness brought me to the front of the classroom.

I didn't have all of the other distracting kids in front of me and I could concentrate on the lessons being taught.

I excelled and was then moved ahead skipping an early grade.

There, the other kids were more of a distraction.

I sat quietly and watched.

I was moved towards the back of the classroom. This way the teacher could keep an eye on the troublemakers.

From then on I remained quietly in the back, not having my questions answered.

Until I had seen enough and dropped out of school. I graduated by going to night school where people actually came to learn something.

Life has come full circle. Practically.

The more you figure out "ego" you are more lonely.

Perhaps that is the real reason why "life is not fair."

Western education
Western heathcare

And, a friend of mine is every day fighting against pain, illness and lack of freedom. That’s another thing that I'm aware of 24/7 and which makes me sometimes feel rather like this.

Does that make sense?

[JackMcThorn]

I am actually sometimes ANGRY at me being ANGRY. Does that make sense?


I find [especially in my late 4os] that anger is a waste of energy that could be applied in a better way.

There was an incident when I was 24 and had an argument with my wife [We were together for 1o years and had about 3 solid arguments the entire time]. I tossed a cordless phone from the kitchen through the small flight of stairs into the living room. It bounced off the couch and broke a window. The phone also broke. This incident cost me about $1oo american in the year 2ooo. I reflected on this incident and sort of promised myself I would not let emotions get to the point of breaking my own stuff as 1 large is still a lot of money [either now or] then. The two other times I was furious with her but did not break anything [but God knows I could have].

Ever since then I find that I have a reasonable degree of patience; I get irritated or frustrated but I don't really get angry anymore. I was thinking that age and experience helps. I have had a lot of problems and a lot of failures which means I have; indeed, also discovered a lot of solutions. The level of energy required, and the consequences of not controlling that energy, could present a high risk scenario to a person or others. I tend to be lower in risk as I age, having taken higher risks in my youth.

So I would mention to think real hard after an incident that sets you off. Self-reflection is a really good tool for many reasons, not only anger. What is in my control? and what is out of my control? - is one of the best starting points for self-reflection. You will be surprised at how you direct your energy after such a personal and honest conversation with yourself. When you discover what is in your control, you will get answers for a better action to take in the future, and those items out of your control are easy to dismiss and a relief to the mind.

The experience of practising these skills lead to skilful use of them in the future. This is one of the reasons I hold experience in much higher esteem than knowledge.

Nothing or no one is really perfect, but practise sure comes close.

[AriG]

I am and have been angry since 1998! Not consistently angry, but more of a waxing/waning bubbling beneath the surface angst and existentialism that gradually invaded my psyche 24 years ago. Why? Everything about this construct is a LIE. And the more we resist, enlighten others, protest? The more “they” double down. Their depopulation agenda was just a plan waiting in the wings until they realized that we realized that we were onto them and that we outnumbered them. Then the gloves came off confirming our suspicions. And what’s being done in any meaningful way? Let’s see, we have a Tech Mogul who wants to usher in transhumanism in charge of the biggest communications on Earth who is likely feigning interest in free speech (for now), government agencies running all media, a major city Center orchestrating climate lockdowns, a former President whose cult followers fail to recognize that Trump ordered the warp speed vaccine death jab, Fauci (Faust) - ordering the creation of bio weapons (and Boston U currently gain of functioning Covid to be a brutal weapon of mass destruction, websites and forums being run by surveillance agencies, public and private, in a very effective pressure release valve campaign, proxy wars designed to enrich the elite, 87,000 Armed IRS agents, open borders and designed fentanyl distribution, a bought and paid for criminal President, woke Mills and Zeds so entitled and pampered that their influence is leading us to hell, drag queens being normalized encouraging children to self mutilate, aging boomers that hold on to positions of power by gaming the system, and a fing Unelected Bond villain telling us exactly how we will be eliminated and NOTHING significant is being done in response to this collective nightmare. It’s all talk everywhere (myself included) No action. “This is the way the world ends (repeat line 2 more times) not with a bang but a whimper “ T.S. Eliot, ‘The Hollow Men’

I find anger lends strength.

But like a sugar high (or many, even any, other types of high), the inevitable crash is debilitating and demoralizing.

Luckily, it often fuels another round of anger...

[Ravenlocke]

I still remember once when I was visiting the forgotten elderly at a local hospice, there was this elderly lady covered completely in a blanket on her bed except her arm, she was laying crunched up on her side. The volunteer groupI was with, quickly left her room thinking she was asleep but I lingered there and some worker looked in and told me that everyone leaves her alone because she doesn’t speak being in pain all the time. I didn’t know what to do as she gave a moan every so often. So I reached out quietly and held her bony, bruised hand gently in mine. It was all I could do, all I could offer her for comfort as I tried to hold back my tears. I stayed like that for a while and the lady got quiet. I didn’t even know her name. Sadly I had to leave after a few minutes as the head of the volunteer group came in looking for me. She smiled at me because she understood what I was doing and later outside she told me that the lady had also been abused and robbed by a staff member who took her only possession her wedding band. I always remember that day and regret that I couldn’t keep up the volunteer time, my personal life got real busy then, working late hours etc. So when someone I know is sick and in pain and I can’t be with them in person I hold their hand in my heart, besides remembering them in prayer of course. :heart2:

None of that was directed at Mashika.

Edit
I'm reading the posts and I would like to comment on anger.
I think anger is better than sadness and hopelessness.
Evil is in the process of brutalizing, tricking, killing, raping and starving the population of our planet.

Anger is better than sadness. Anger is better than hopelessness. Anger means you haven't given up

It is often hard to see the truth and harder yet to actually believe the truth especially when your beliefs are deeply rooted. The truth can never be found when and if we are attacking those that hold different beliefs. We must walk away from those that will never come to truth and show extraordinary patience with everyone else. To be an exceptional human we must allow our beliefs to be challenged (always) and change when confronted with a different truth or a different reality.

But when you do understand it is as if a new world has appeared.

Your links or Inbeds are not working, at least for me.

Truth- in any given situation, there is only one truth. The right truth, rooted in decency and
Morality - shades of gray are a nuanced influence, but they are just that. When confronted with any important judgement, most will agree that the right choice is the decent choice. For example, the desire to make abortion a political issue, claiming that there are hoards of women aborting fetuses in the ninth month. We instinctively know this probably happens if at all, rarely. However, we can all probably agree that it is reasonable to put a 12 week limit on this procedure. Regardless of circumstances. The opponents of this reasonable position, ironically, almost always advocate for the death penalty. They claim, as in the case of Ben Shapiro, that life begins at conception, and that it should be protected due to its “possibilities”- even if the fetus would be non-viable post partum and then in a massive cognitive dissonant moment, advocate for the murder of that same fetus 30 years after its mother was denied a termination, as she was unable to raise that child, resulting in a societal pirriah, who having been reared without resources, love and affection, becomes the and does the unthinkable, resulting in a sentence of capital punishment. Would it have not been kinder to have ended that life at 12 weeks gestation rather than Subjecting it to 30 odd years of emotional neglect and torture culminating in its ultimate demise via the hand of the state? In Other words, you cannot be pro life and pro death penalty, yet somehow, these polar positions dwell within the hearts of supposed Christians who claim to have the moral authority to dictate personal choice.

Just one example of there is one truth.

FWIW- I am conservative- just pointing out the hypocrisy in those who speak truth. One must be consistent in the application of truth. Otherwise it is yet again, another lie upon which this construct depends.


But when you do understand it is as if a new world has appeared.

True. It just baffles me that the anger is replaced by another anger. So it's just an internal 'deal'.

The observer (super-consciousness, Higher Self, whatever) behind my thoughts and emotions of course remains there and is emotionless, just observing, as always.

Yet the observation of "this ego/person which is me is feeling anger" right now due to the self-awareness 'triggers down' again and replaces the original anger.

It's also funny though and makes me smile about myself then which helps to evaporate the anger state a bit faster in the end.

Omg Bill- lump in throat for you. That dog has been your constant and loyal companion when mere humans could not muster the loyalty shown by beautiful Mara. What can be done? Is there a procedure? Can she walk on a leash? I worry that she will become desocialized and develop dementia due to the loss of a sense, albeit in dogs, it is a weaker sense. My livestock dogs bark at my Jeep when I drive into our little farm until they hear my voice or smell me. In no way am I trying to dictate as I have no idea of your circumstances, but if there were a way for you to take her on brief jaunts/hikes as her seeing eye human? That might keep her engaged. Also, how does she fare with other dogs? We’re you to introduce another dog into the household to be of assist to her, would she accept that? I have lived and lost a number of dogs in my 57 years. Still tear up thinking about each lovely soul. Anyhow, sorry to go off topic. Just wanted to butt in and share my unsolicited advice? 🤗

It's everywhere around me at work. Companies are embracing this like crazy. Possibly because real work is boring and everyone wants something tangible to do to save the world, even though they're obviously not.

It's like when people use terms like 'anti-vax', 'alt-right', and a few others, and actually think they're real terms. No, they're a deliberate divisive ploy to make people out to be worse than they really are. But people hear those terms and copy-use them because mysteriously they have no idea they didn't originally think of those words themselves. They don't understand how they're falling for conflation.

That's the anger release in a sublime way though, isn't it?

The sudden ridiculousness being exposed in a chaotic way, the release is that burst of laughter at the irony, the ludicrous nature of whatever problem/trigger/madness that common sense sees so clearly.

And of course they're not funny when looked at rationally for a 3D perspective, at least not if you're human. Perhaps thank the gift of the moment that lets you see you are above all this and none of it is real. That explosion of humour reminded you it's all madness. :)


=============================

Met a lady last week that asked me what I thought of Putin, my reply stunned her into an impersonation of a goldfish in a bowl, mouth opening and closing. She told me she thought he was the most evil man on the planet. It took some time to gently bring up the subject of propaganda and how we are bombarded by it all the time.

My anger was not with her, she was but a victim. The anger was for the dereliction of duty utterly rampant in the fourth estate.
