Also, Usa is not western world, they're the largest third world dictatorship
At the time they were, and also, if we use the term third world as it was initially, its still first world, by inherent fact of what the term used to stand for.
Western world is not Usa. You mean Usa then
I was going to point out that "third world" just means "countries the USA feels entitled to invade or topple the governments of", but I suppose that would make the USA a third world country now, given Trump's re-election after his attempted coup.
