Fuck you!! ;)

I could get angry that you cursed at me. I could say fuck you back. I could say that I don't like sushi. But I won't. I'm an person with integrity and if is say anger is bad, then I will avoid getting angry.

I will defend myself by saying that I don't think I wrote anything that I deserve to be cursed at.

Suppose a brain scientist could turn off the anger part of brain. — Purple Pond

That's where it gets terminologically semantic. Anger is an emotion described and viewed upon by us, it's a word recognized by a linguistic community: humans. But that doesn't elucidate the causes of anger, we just recognize it as an emotional response. Just like every emotional, inner sensation, the causes of it is in regards to the structure of the human brain.

When a certain, intrinsic disposition of the brain is triggered, like anger, we choose to label it together as a linguistic community. Anger as we see it, has specifically something to do with our adrenaline rush, our distorted emotions, and scientific psychology. WE discovered Anger's roots by our research, but that's not the same as how us humans, identify anger and other abstract concepts intuitively.

Without anger, our descriptions of the world will not be as how it is today, the natural phenomena occurring behind that is relative to existences today.

Even attacking, as well as defending, can come not out of anger, but out of necessity. — Purple Pond

Emotions fuel the way we act, it's very powerful and controlling. Think of the Platonic tripartite theory. The constructed tripartite theory consists of three things: the rational aspect, the emotional aspect, and the appetitive aspect. Mutually, these three aspects support each other in synergy.

Our rationality and emotions fuel our appetitive desires like protecting ourselves, and having to eat. Likewise, our appetitive aspect reminds the other aspects of our bodily needs.

Conclusion

• Anger, just like the rest of our emotions, is substantially valuable to our daily livelihood.

• Too much of any emotion like: Happiness or Sadness, can jeopardize our standardized intuitions.

• Our perspective of emotions and rationality has shaped our contemporary realities.

• Anger, to a certain degree can be excessively harmful and thus unimportant, but a right amount of it, is fundamental.

Therefore, anger is, necessary.

Anger is a nasty emotion. It can cause, among other things, yelling, breaking things, and hurt generally. Anger is a destructive emotion and brings distress. Nearly all of us have it, though. It was naturally selected for, so it must have been useful for survival. — Purple Pond

In aggressive anger we throw things, shout , destroy , etc. But the basis of anger isn't evolutionary mechanisms, and it isnt eliminated simply by not acting out.
Let's get to the origin of anger. Anger is the manifestation of a cognitive appraisal. This appraisal is two-pronged. It begins with a disappointment pain, loss. That experience is followed up by the assessment that the entity which was responsible for one's loss , pain or disappointment knew better than to do what they did. They violated our expectation of them, or of what we assumed someone in their situation would have done. Anger is the belief that someone knew what they did would cause us pan and disregarded our feelings. Our anger seeks the other's apology, contrition, repentance, punishment. In anger we want to teach the thoughtless other a lesson.


To answer your question. the only way to avoid anger is to rethink the other's behavior as either unintentional or as a sincere judgement on their part that we deserved to be hurt. We can avoid shouting or throwing chairs, but we will still feel anger as long as we assess situations with other people as I outlined above. The real danger of anger is that it prompts us to want to reject, punish, censure the perpetrator. This is the basis of most cultural violence. A great majority of situations in which we judge the other to be culpable is the result of our failure to see the world from their perspective and understated why they believed they were justified in doing what they did, They may have been in error, but that is different from saying that they thoughtlessly disregarded our feelings.

On a more serious note :)

Anger is a necessary sensation that warns us about a problem. What matters more is not that FEEL anger it is how we address it. I am not one for either ignoring anger or pretending I can subdue into submission, nor I am one for allowing anger to override every other aspect of my emotional narrative.

With children especially telling them things like “anger is bad” is of little help. What we should generally say to children is “anger exists and you need to understand it”. Sometimes it helps to simply say “it’s okay to be angry” rather than telling people to “stop being angry” which could have a very detrimental effect as it will resurface again.

When someone is angry it also gives us the chance to address ourselves as being a possible provocateur or as failing to address an underlying anger we display in a comedic manner - comedy is a great way to defuse situations.

As a little aside; I remember an interview with Derren Brown about how he dealt with an aggressive drunk. The man approached him looking for a fight ... “What you looking at!?” He looked him calmly in the eye and said “The wall in my back garden is only four feet tall, yet in other gardens walls are six feet tall.” The man asked him to repeat in confusion, and he simply said the same thing again as if it was the normal thing to say in the world. Derren then describes how he could almost physically see the adrenaline drain from the mans demeanor. He ended up sitting down and talking to the guy about a big fight that he had had with his girlfriend that night.

This is a Philosophy Forum.

One...you were not "cursed" at. "Curse" should have a specific meaning in a Philosophy Forum. If Sush had said, "Damn you"...that would be cursing. He merely threw a vulgarity at you.

Two...you should more carefully consider the words "humor response."

ASIDE: I laughed out loud when I read the response.

Like everything else about humans, anger arises out of the nature of thought. Thus, we should probably be somewhat skeptical of anybody's plan for getting rid of anger. Manage, yes. Get rid of, doubt it.

I would say no we can't, you only see anger as a deterrent. However it can also be a modivator.

I'm no expert, but I would say that in the absence of anger our species would die off, but hey, we're heading for extinction either way.

I like what Rabbi Dr. Abraham Twerski said about anger (u can find it on YouTube) basically he says that you can't control the first feeling of anger but you can control how you react and how long are you going to hold on to your anger. The thing is the bad consequences of anger is the results of those things. If we won't feel anger we won't be force to make the choice how to react to it or how long to hold on to it so it seems like it is a good thing because we won't have to make bad choices. How far would it go though? There are a lot of other things that i can think of that can cause us making bad choices do we eliminate them as well? On a more personal note I think anger teach you more about yourself than it is about the other person. I wouldn't want to lose that.

Anger, is the same opposite side of Happiness, if you can control your happiness then i would say yes you can control your anger as well. Emotions are part of the human nature, or so , and i guess that's what the AI advances is always consider about. How can we distinguish a robot from a human being, emotions and that's it. So it will be damm hard to live without both of them. The best of us can be negative sometimes but despite all the negativity around us we can be peaceful as well. That will require a higher wisdom and knowledge about the world in general.
