Do you think people just need to be angry?

I DO think some people need to rage.

I think it's why they come here.

Although, I think their rage is misplaced.

When one is discussing a topic outside of oneself, one is not personally attached to it, one can be objective, logical....reasoning of facts and opinions.

So why do they get personal and offended, and rage?
I wouldn't rage at you for disliking a certain music or type of dessert.

They rage because they need to
They rage because deep down - they are unhappy.
They rage because they wont change themselves or their life to be better - and they are angry at themselves and it. .....and therefore everyone and everything .

And they need a seed, kernal a root cause to use to germinate their anger.
And politics is that genesis

They choose politics specifically because you can find mutiple 'facts', but the dynamic is ever changing. They can bring up histories and events to fuel their argument, yet go off on completely different accusative tangents should you dissasemble their current argument with logic, (or other facts).

Politics gives them an unending supply of rage material.

If you notice, there are specific users who indulge in no other topics other than politics .

This grumping about is their addiction.
It satiates their angry beast inside .
Its a safe topic, (and place), to rage away, diffuse the anger bomb inside .....so they can face their unhappy life. (This is relates to what @Fishy was saying)
It means they can survive another day without raging at someone in their life.

(Maybe they lost their spouse and no longer have a captive audience to rage and throw abuse at anymore ?)

These are people who feel deep inside that they are losing ...and NEED to feel they have won


The rest of us dont really care about 'winning'.
We grew out of that need to decades ago.
In fact......we just grew, full stop.


These angry people have never grown.

And they never will.

This anger is like their opium or their booze - its their daily dopamine. Their addiction .

Its very sad actually.
They will be like this till they die.


And they'll prolly die alone 🫤
