When did you realise the term "1st world country" was invented as a cope by wh*tes?

I'm not even Chinese but to claim the UK is a "1st world country" and China is a "developing" country is so fucking hilarious.

Who in their right mind living in the UK actually believes that compared to China, it's a "1st world country"?

You actually have to be coping so hard your brain is falling out.

China is developing and your country isn't(it's regressing) so i guess it's still somewhat accurate.

These are cold war terms that should have been retired in 1991.
Just say "rich countries" and "poor countries"

AHAHAHAHAA this cope

Oh look at what's being reported today in the media!

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2025/jul/18/serious-pollution-incidents-englands-water-companies-data

https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/boards-policy-regulation/uk-set-out-water-reforms-thames-water-faces-crisis-2025-07-18/

>Serious pollution incidents by water companies were up 60% last year compared with the year before, data has revealed.

>These incidents are the most environmentally damaging and indicate that the sewage spill or other pollution incident has a serious, extensive or persistent impact on the environment, people or property. They could, for example, result in mass fish deaths in rivers.

>The total number of serious pollution incidents in 2024 was 75, up from 47 in 2023, Environment Agency figures showed. Of these, 81% (61) were caused by three companies: Thames Water (33), Southern Water (15) and Yorkshire Water (13). Thames Water’s serious incidents more than doubled from 14 to 33.

It refers to Western and non-Western countries. Obviously the proliferation of non-Whites renders any country into a third world shithole.

1st world refers to the US and it's subjects. 2nd world is Russia and it's subjects. 3rd world is everywhere else.

Ireland is, in fact, a third world country.

People thinking 1st world means better is from the period after world war 2 where the US was better than everywhere else. Which is no longer the case.

>China is developing

LMFAO

Do you realise retarded this statement is?

If a "1st world country" is "developed" and a "3rd world country" is "developing" - this implies that there's a state at which a country can no longer "develop" which is fucking retarded because there are always advancements in technology, in transport, in healthcare, etc.

This is such a cope argument LMFAO

If anything, being a "developing" country is superior because it means you're not complacent.

china actually pretends that its not rich so they get better conditions with the WTO. They actually perpetuate the myth. western governments pretend they are backwards because they dont want people to see the chinese political system as an alternative.

anyway, china only got rich really post-WTO whcih was 2001 and lots of political dialogue hasn't caught up.

it's an outdated term really. the jewK is now a massive shithole, everyone knows this. not necessarily for a lack of shekels though, just misplaced priorities and a love of shitskins

>British government figures have revealed that a whopping 1.3 million foreigners are receiving Universal Credit benefits at the taxpayer’s expense.

>The stats from the Department of Work and Pensions show that in June 1.26 million people, out of a total 7.9 million claimants, received the welfare subsidies.

>While Conservative MPs attempted to jump on the Labour government over the findings, Reform leader Nigel Farage noted that it was the Conservative government that introduced the Universal Credit system and facilitated mass immigration for years.

>The figures also show that the average payment was £1,010 a month, and the overwhelming majority of migrant claimants are unemployed.

>Farage added “for the first time the Department of Work and Pensions have given us some figures that many have wanted for years. The result? There are 1.3 million migrants on Universal Credit, and over half of them don’t do any work at all.”

>“This goes completely against the lie we’ve been told for 25 years that immigration’s fine because everyone’s working and everyone’s contributing,” Farage continued.

>“We can see from this that it’s not… some of this has happened since Labour came to power but nearly all of it happened during 14 years of Conservative government,” he further urged.

>“And if they dare say a word about these numbers today don’t take them seriously and frankly they should be in hiding for what they’ve done to this country,” Farage asserted.

the US is the same where even living in cities or being "urban" is synonymous with poverty and most of the country is a non english speaking gangland shithole where people get in shootouts at gas stations.

Retard. The terms derive from the cold war. 3rd world refers to countries that were part of neither axis of power and the development of different "worlds" as spheres of power, influence, and allegiance. China was unambiguously a 2nd world country. Fucking sweden and finland were considered 3rd world. South Africa was considered a 1st world country.

You might not realise it, but there are a lot of differences. For example, you can't just run over kids here. You cant drive your chibesium shitbox willy nilly over top of children, splattering their little heads like a watermelon, and then just drive away. We consider that very not good here, so it basically never happens, and if it does whoever did it goes to prison for a very long time. Terrible place where you either get raped by niggers, or you rape the niggers if you're tough enough.
Many small things like this.

China actively defends its status as a developing country because it gives them certain benefits in international trade
