I don't think we can rid our world of angry feelings, but I think we can rid our world of angry reactions (retaliation, passive aggressive behavior, various forms of punishment, etc).
In my own life, I know there is a profound difference between acknowledging a problem and dealing with it rationally in a way that I can feel good about afterward... and an angry outburst that makes me feel worse afterward.
