From July 31, 2022 to August 1, 2022, a debate/discussion occurred about the merits of [[capitalism]] vs. [[socialism]] at RationalWiki's forum which is called their Saloon Bar. The discussion thread that sparked this debate/discussion was entitled ''US is officially facing a recession''<ref>[https://rationalwiki.org/w/index.php?title=RationalWiki:Saloon_bar&oldid=2474522#US_is_officially_facing_a_recession US is officially facing a recession]</ref>

[[LeftyGreenMario]], a lady board member of the RationalMedia Foundation and a moderator of RationalWiki, became so angry that RationalWiki's leftists/socialists lost the debate, that she accused the capitalist User: Lipsen of spending his school years "munching on history book binding" while using coarse language and misspelling the word sanctimonious (She spelled it "sacrimonious").<ref>[https://rationalwiki.org/w/index.php?title=RationalWiki:Saloon_bar&diff=2474490&oldid=2474478 Revision as of 21:14, 1 August 2022 (edit) (undo) LeftyGreenMario (talk | contribs)]</ref> See also: [[Atheism and profanity]]

LeftyGreenMario then banned User: Lipson on August 1, 2022.<ref>[https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Special:Log/block RationalWiki block log]</ref> Most atheists lean politically to the left and many atheists are intolerant. See also: [[Atheism and politics]] and [[Atheism and intolerance]].
