I don’t really fuck with the first, second, and third world concept but everyone I have met who would call themselves a third worldist (even jokingly) was really cool. I think I also fall into this catagory but I want to make sure I am understanding it correctly.

    The term has drifted to a meaningless term and usually just means ‘poor’ or ‘evil’ depend on context. I wish words still had meanings.

    It just refers to the global south now. Unless it’s a racist saying it (many such cases), then it means what you’re saying.
