Ron：
if you are talking about something that is clearly not a place, either physically or as a reasonably direct metaphor, then you can't use "where". for instance,
a rant in which Smith denounced all of his bosses at work --> this works
a rant where Smith denounced all of his bosses at work --> this doesn't work.
⚠️
do note that GMAC has occasionally published correct sentences in which "where" has represented things that aren't necessarily physical locations, but are reasonably direct metaphor for physical locations.
e.g.
Many population studies have linked a high-salt diet to high rates of hypertension and shown that in societies where little salt is consumed, blood pressure typically does not rise with age.
