Anger is considered an emotion the same way its illegal to murder someone with your car or rape someone more marginalized than you.

Vehicle manslaughter and institutional racism.

They're talking about how bad things get reframed for convenience. Male anger doesn't make them emotional no!

So its technically illegal to rape people, but every friend ive had whos been fucking retarded enough to report one to the police has regretted it. Institutions just do it. Its socially acceptable. Like, how many of the people on the ballot last year weren't rapists, of at least adults? It's practically a cultural value.

The criminal penalties for killing someone with an axe and killing someone with a car are not the same. Often, even if it's premeditated, you won't do serious time, especially if you kill a 'nuisance' like a protestor or extremely marginalized person.

i'm not entirely sure what you mean by this

On paper, yeah, but it's not treated like it by anyone in power. The consewuences aren't the same, social and otherwise.
