Managing Anger

Last month we asked several of our operatives to lead clandestine survey teams to find out what is wrong with society. One of our teams, tasked with investigating the political landscape of the US, stated in their conclusions that "unmanaged anger directed in apparently random directions is killing political discourse and thereby allowing the radical elements to take over as the more moderate elements turn away in disgust." One of the team members was assaulted by an angry activist during the study, but he has since recovered fully. Several of our other teams mentioned anger as a serious problem, including one tasked with investigating the self-help community that ran across this incident where there was a stabbing at an anger management class. They stated that "far from helping people to manage their anger these classes often act as collectors that concentrate the least rational among us and exacerbate their rage." At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not angered by the lack of self-control people exercise, which is why we are asking our world citizens to manage their own anger and to report any and all incidents of unmanaged anger to your local GPD offices so that we can remedy the situation.
