What is Anger?

Anger is a physiologically excited state which signals that you perceive that something is wrong and should be made right. Anger need not necessarily manifest as physical violence/harm. Call this being assertive. Assertion is the utility of masculinity.

The normative claim is the zero level of your desire and will. If you want something, you are implicitly making a normative claim that something is wrong (not having, doing, or being that thing) and should be made right. Do not suppress this fundamental perception due to postmodernism or whatever. The other option is roll over and spread your cheeks.

The purpose of this post is to encourage you to introspect and unravel the knot you may have around anger and aggression so that you will stop languishing. For example, my father was a dumb cunt and expressed his anger towards his children like a emotional retard - yes, that is the scientific term. This unsophisticated interpretation of anger stayed with me until I unraveled the logic and assumptions with which my subconscious operated.

Final note

You probably have a ton of unsophisticated interpretations of many aspects of reality that you formulated when you were an illiterate child. I know I did and do. I highly encourage you take the time to introspect and fix your bullshit. Your inner world determines your outer world. Also just because you make a normative claim does not mean it is respectable.
