r/TIL flaunts a comparative advantage in popcorn production once a poster invokes r/neoliberal

It was news to someone that one of Beyonce's clothing lines made use of Sri Lankan manufacturers, according to a short article from Fox News. One poster's highly-upvoted and gilded comment features a tongue firmly planted in cheek, but the sarcasm is lost once other posters begin to supply nuanced arguments in support of their own positions:

"You're a fucking piece of imperialist scum."

"I appreciate the sophistication you showed here, but could you elaborate a bit on what specifically you find mentally disabled about my comment?"

Neoliberal economics is followed because credible economists say it works, but economists are only seen as credible if they already agree with the neoliberal position

The average progressive's hypocrisy is farcical.

"That's capitalism you dumb fucks."

The science of climatology contrasted with the philosophy of economics

In unrelated drama, posters take issue with the time Beyonce birthed a child. "Can you imagine if Dr House worked there?" "You know Dr House isn't real right?"
