>>1623431They shouldn't be using 1st, 2nd, or 3rd world at all. These are archaic terms from the 20th century, a time when the Cold War was still going on. It has ended, and thus these terms should end with it.
If you want to argue that USA is a shit country, go ahead and say it, but saying it's a "3rd world country" is wrong by technical definition and using it to identify shitty countries is also wrong.
And I won't lie, this country is shit. It all went downhill after babyboomers took over. Can you blame me for this? No, you can't. But all countries have their weaknesses and Australia certainly isn't perfect either.
