Not true, the feelings I posessed when posting it only dictate the target.
Lets take this from another view: What am I ranting about? Rant's usually call for a central theme (included directly and A LOT).

the theme, the theme is right here,
"The Project Gutenberg EBook of Graded Lessons in English
by Alonzo Reed and Brainerd Kellogg "
what makes it a rant was that when you posted this discontent with siad theme, and there form felt obligated to post it here
all a rant is is you showing disaproval for something, though it is not directly shown in this post, it can be inferred

"A rant is a widespread and distinctive phenomenon of emotional speech or writing in the form of a series of complaints or attacks, about a topic of interest, many times political in nature. {Rarely, rants express great praise, defending an idea or a person from attack.}"
This is neither a a distinctive phenomenon of emotional speech or a series of complaints or attacks, about a topic of interest.

to me rant discribes the act of one making known there discontentment for a person, place, or thing, wether it be writen/spoken, or only infered
