it is a futile display of self-righteousness, that's what I always tell people when they ask me why I'm never angry.
what's the purpose?
Proverbs 29:11
"A fool gives full vent to his spirit,
but a wise man quietly holds it back."

I think it's useful when you
- have been wronged or are in danger
- need to act
- need to avoid thinking about the consequences
In modern life it tends to be less useful because we're often not in danger. IME it's almost more often that people get angry when they:
- want to act
- want to avoid thinking about the consequences
Then after they fact they manufacture how they've been wronged.
