When I was a child, I was often beat up by a guy, mostly punched. He was far stronger than me. One day, I was so angry and crying that I try to transform into supersayan, thinking that if I'm angry, I will developp a superpower.. I was punched again and the harrasment only stopped in middle school.
Super sayan and other transformation like that that come from anger are quite problematic for children. Yes, they are cool, but they are unhealthy from a mental point of view.
I suggest you watch this video for more information on why power through anger is a problem in media.
One Piece while having Luffy beat his opponent through a punch of anger (a legitimate one) almost NEVER fall into the cliche that anger makes you stronger. In the opposite, One Piece has a lot of creative way to create powerups.

Exactly,
These fans are just coping
Oda is the King of adds-on and improvisations
Most stuff we got in OP are just him freestyling yet some fans wanna try make it seem like Oda was doing some foreshadowing
He just remembered and did a retcon.
Nobody even thought that pose was gonna be G5 at all. Not even Oda himself lol

While this can be true in some cases (mostly when we talk about theories) this is not the case for gear 5. There is a clear sets of amazing foreshadowing in One Piece concerning this transformation.
We can say that not only because of the way gear 5 is presented, but also the way Oda creates his story as a whole.
But like I explain earlier, foreshadowings are but a little part of the reason why gear 5 is such a beautifully written power up and plot twist.

No, we are not because I have your arse on ignore. Why?
Brain-dead, knuckle dragging, troglodyte nonsense like this. "Oh wow, it is societally problematic that a man becomes angry that his friend was killed right before his eyes!!! Think of the toxic masculinity of men not wanting their friends dead!!! Think of the toxic masculinity of men being motivated by the loss of loved ones!!!! Think of the toxic masculinity of men feeling justified emotions!!!!! ThiNk oF tHe tOxiC mAscULiNITy!!!!!!!"
I refuse to entertain anybody whose worldview is so decayed, corrupted and warped by political interests that they will see the imaginary phantom spectre of perceived political messaging in everything and anything, even in the most bare bones basics of stories or moments that follow themes that have nothing to do with politics. Human emotions aren't political talking points.
I only saw your post because I wondered who @Roo was talking to. Go bother Bob. He'll humour you on mundane, inane, asinine drivel like this.

Yeah I think you don't understand the problem. But its not the right thread to talk about that so I will ignore this. If you don't understand what I said, that's not my problem.
Like I said, at the end Luffy is angry for right reasons. But it doesn't make him stronger its only makes him angrier. The strengh of Luffy here is not "improved" because he is angry, this strenght was always there. The problem comes when anger leads to more power. But like I said to your mate above, I'll not discuss that here. If you understand cool, if you don't, ciao.
Another one that think that stories don't shape the way we think..
Funny, there is this pattern of verbal violence when I talk to rightist or people who don't understand the story. As if what I said challenges their point of view. Note that there is no sign of counter point it's just "you are wrong".
what series are you reading? for 90% of One Piece the moment Luffy got angry was the moment the fight was nearing it's end. Oda didn't need to outright state "Luffy gets stronger when angrier" when he literally showed us that.
