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>

Debate recap: A member of RationalMedia Foundation's board of directors became furious when [[User: Conservative]] (User: Lipsen) pointed out that the [[conservative]] [[Margaret Thatcher]] was the longest-serving British Prime Minister of the 20th century and in the 1980s, Britain's economy under Thatcher grew faster than any other economy - except for Spain. In addition, the squalid conditions of the UK when various manufacturing companies were nationalized and the public sector enlarged was pointed out. Furthermore, it was pointed out that abusive language is not a substitution for sound arguments. There were so many other sound arguments made during the debate that the politically [[Leftism|left]]-leaning [[RationalWiki]] website is in the midst of creating a "Criticism of [[socialism]]" article.
[[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]]
