Is public ranting just an avenue to seek validation?

I love a good rant honestly helps when my brain is flooded with intense thoughts, however I don't think i’ve ever wanted validation but the opposite I wanted someone to show me the world is bigger than my eyes for example. But sometimes it helps knowing you aren't the only person in the world sitting in the darkness.
 
Can't you just ask for that instead of having to rant though?

When I refer to rants, it's usually some sort of complaint.
Well yes but it kills two birds with one stone as I like to order my thoughts. Sometimes in the midst of my complaining and ranting I find loop holes myself, I think its healthy. My dad used to rant to himself in the kitchen, rehashing arguments and saying what he wished he said 😅 made him look a bit bonkers though.

Sometimes I complain about my mother other time about men and sometimes about expectations set on me, its a nice way to open my mind. However, I think rants have to be seen as a rant otherwise it can become very offensive, very quickly.
