From the perspective of Baruch Spinoza, anger arises when your power to act is reduced by an external cause, and you interpret that reduction as something that should not be happening. So the hidden expectation is not just “this shouldn’t happen,” but more precisely “my efforts should have some proportional effect.” When reality repeatedly shows that your effort does not secure safety, fairness, or even basic respect, the system registers a contradiction. That contradiction is felt as anger.
