"The girls deserve it."
"What hypocrites! Don't they realize what they're doing to the guys?"
You can rage and 'pwn' but what does this actually accomplish? Nothing, naturally. You're not their priest and preaching at them can be safely expected to fail. You're not declaring war and forcefully subjugating them. They're not even your neighbour. It's a stranger and they're not going to try to get along with you. Just turn off the screen. Go outside. Occasionally you can make a solid joke, but I've almost certainly heard it before, and it wasn't too funny the first time. The supply of jesters is not exactly low.
Getting mad about it is low status. It suggests something about this threatens you. It's not their problem. There's a hole in your security. It's something that shouldn't affect you, but you have let it. You don't have the power to achieve the things you want. You're entitled; you needed handouts, but it seems the hands are empty. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ You are not their neighbour/soldier/priest, and likewise, they are not yours, so what are you upset about?
A wrathful god makes no sense. What's an immortal doing being threatened
by some puny mortals? If the wrath works, it proves the god was a god and the wrath was irrelevant.
Jesus or Buddha instead has compassion for whatever catastrophe drove them to be this way. They're not the enemy. They are unfortunate cripples who quite possibly have no hope.
"I’ve cheated on my first
wife brazenly and with malice, snitched on my nephew to the feds [...] I
get away with them all because I’m handsome and tall and in good
physical form."
The folk acting this way don't have the things you want either. This is the result of cataclysmic failure. They're maimed.
Is there any anger that isn't in fact resentment? Fear leads to anger - does only fear lead to anger?
If you need to be afraid, you screwed up. You didn't secure your shit. Tried to control something you don't own instead of admitting you don't own it. Went to a work site without your tools. You wanted something, tried the prayer [getting mad] and then got even more mad when Gnon declined to respond to that ritual.
"I hate this world so much"
If [the world] is attacking what you love, I think your loved one might already be dead. Time to let go, there's nothing left to protect. If you think you need to conquer the entire world before you can be safe, you have narcissism, you can't be safe even if you do.
"They deserve it, the "normal" defend this world and hate incels"
Why are you seeking their approval? Why does their opinion mean any more to you than a goat's or a sparrow's?
Someone hates me? That's unfortunate. My condolences. I don't think about them at all.
If you don't need to be afraid, what is there to be angry about?
If you lose, try accepting that you were defeated. Give up on the impossible. Getting mad about it will only make it hurt more. Has Gnon ever reversed his decision because you told him didn't deserve it? Even once?
If you're angry, accept you're afraid. So you can fix yourself.
Make your own world. Try a prayer that Gnon will in fact grant.
Of course, no matter how much compassion you feel, don't try to fix them.
A implies B, A does not imply Q as portrayed. You're still not their priest, their conqueror, or even their neighbour. If it's your daughter they were kidnapped by the State long ago and it's time to admit she was never meaningfully yours in the first place. Merely make sure your gate is locked so they can't poop on your doorstep.
Help them if they offer to pay you. If they're offering to pay enough. If they ask, with a sufficient ask.
Of course, don't forget to have compassion for yourself too. Some catastrophe happened to you too, or you wouldn't need to hear any of this.
