You can be angry, but you shouldn't let your anger control you. You should control it.

I am always extremely suspicious when I get that feeling of insecure anger while... talking to people about politics. Usually it's a sign of cognitive dissonance; your subconscious knows you believe contradictory things. It's a sign you might need to examine some of your beliefs.

Good news is it's a good sign post. It means you can figure some things out if you so choose. For this reason I try to welcome it.
