IMO, The US has crumbling infrastructure, corrupt government, dangerous cities, and a lot of homelessness, among so many other problems. Hell, millions of people in the US don’t even have power right now.
What’s the difference?

Yup, it does change. It was attempted to mean “poor” and it’s been reappropriated since
If you’re trying to use modern language, it’s “developed” and “developing”
You mean global north/ global south.
Developing and developed are considered negatively.
But in terms of laypeople words, that are used every day, 1st and 3rd world mean the same thing.
North/south imply certain regions can’t improve and is far worse than developed/developing
If layperson words didn’t have an issue with 1st/3rd world, you wouldn’t see so many comments about it
