The US really is becoming a third world country by the day, isn't it. God I hate it here

Well akchually the USA can never become a third world country, because the designations come from the cold war and first world means US aligned, second world means UdSSR aligned and third world are the neutral countries.

Idk. The us population definitely isn't aligned with the us government or vice versa.

Jokes aside, that's pretty interesting. I didn't know that's where those terms came from
