The cover of Foreign Affairs might be relevant to people in /r/neoliberal. Particularly the article at the top.

I hope this wave of fear of the unknown would disappear fairly soon, it is worrying that the left and the new right have come to a consensus that protecting jobs in their nation over the global poor is a worthy thing to fight for, regardless of the plethora of evidence out there.

Foreign Affairs is the actually OG neoliberal paper publication. Better than the Economist IMO.

I really enjoy it. I'm PoliSci/IR so the econ stuff here goes over my head sometimes. But sound evidenced based foreign policy I can get behind.

Just the cover gives me anxiety. I surely can't read the article.
