"Whoever needs to hear this" is Reddit mods (especially of political subs) in my experience. Sooo much sealioning and other "polite" disinformation left unchecked, while angry comments calling it out got censored for "incivility."

Anger is sadness that had nowhere to go for a very long time.

Anger is a “secondary emotion” usually masking fear or sadness, https://healthypsych.com/psychology-tools-what-is-anger-a-secondary-emotion/

It is also the emotion that happens right after confusion but before fear after someone punches you in the face.
