No! Don't ignore your anger. The question is not why the anger is necessary. If you are angry, respect yourself enough to listen. Punch a wall! Go in your car and scream!
But do not try to express your anger in writing. It doesn't work. We're just apes. The part of you that's angry only sees you clicking on some square thing. Thats as bad as ignoring the anger. Would you ignore an upset friend? What happens if you do that?
If you're constantly feeling strong emotions and don't want that, then just listen to them.
Yes. Anger is a signal. But what is a signal of? Most people have virtually no idea. It's so easy to be a puppet of your own emotions.
Anger is an invitation to understand the world better, understand yourself better. Writing angry reactionary screeds is a tragic misuse of the signal.

Tragic in the deepest sense of the word

Have your anger, shout it out, but don't hold it against others. The freedom to be angry includes the freedom not to be angry.
