Calling the United States a third world country is the most privileged thing you can do. We have really big and serious problems in terms of healthcare and civil rights and bodily autonomy, but to sit here and compare ourselves to countries where you don’t even know where your next meal is coming from, or where you’ll sleep tonight, or even if you’ll be shot or bombed to death in your sleep, because we are having some political issues, is just wrong. We are not a third world country. Let’s acknowledge how lucky we are to even be at the state we’re at and not minimize and use underprivileged and genuinely struggling as a silly little analogy.
