I really hate the classification of people saying 1st world to 3rd world countries. This isnt a personal attack on you. But one has to wonder why are human beings labelling and stigmatizine whole countries. We have this miscontrued idea of countries.
The classification used here is just a tool or a means to make a distinction between countries around the world. I'm not sure what you mean by misconstrued, but if you're implying the average 3rd world country isn't mostly poor or struggling in comparison to a 2nd or 1st world country I'd say you're completely wrong here.
To be honest poverty exists everywhere. I live in Canada. And we do have a lot of income inequality. It got so bad that the government wanted to enforce a universal income strategy to reduce the poverty in Canada. Secondly, I feel labelling countries is ignorant.
Are you saying Canada is on the same level as Africa or even middle eastern countries when it comes to poverty?
A lot of these so called 3rd countries,, were not born without natural resources. Their natural resources either got stolen from outside invaders. Or is a combination of things. A comibnation of stolen natural resources,, war zones, political corruption and natural disasters. ANd no country is ever safe from natural disasters..at least not completely. I know that in this forum we talk alot about India. But India has a long history of colonialism. Where has contributed to the situations they have now. These so called first world countries. Are a result of imperialism, and colonialism. where outsiders invade and conquered their land. And the natural resources were stolen as wel. None of these nations we live in..we didnt earn any of it. Its just its wealth has been redistributed throughout thee world. But again these labels is what contributed to the vast inequality in our world.
How do these classifications make the world worse in anyway? It's simply a means of understanding the current state of a nation/country. Everything else is pretty much unrelated to the topic.
None of this addresses anything in regards as to why we should or shouldn't keep labeling countries according to their current economic states.
The world really needs to start contibituing to his false social hierarchy. when has pride, arrogance, nariccsim, superiroty complex and inferiority complex become virtues?
None of this has anything to do with arrogance/narcissism/superiority or even virtues its simply a type of distinction. I'm not sure what you mean't by start contributing to this false social hierarchy, but if you meant to say stop contributing then I'd ask you what about this distinction or classification of countries is false?
Let's try applying your reasoning to another type of classification/label like classes of people. I really hate the label poor why do we even have this sort of distinction? Why do we stigmatize entire groups of people according to how much money they make? We have this misconception of classes... to be honest different classes of people exist everywhere around the world. Now I ask you how do we go about differentiating between poor-middle-rich? What would you use to properly label these groups?
I'd argue you're going at this from the wrong angle sure there might be a type of stigma with a country being called a 3rd world, but you have to realized this is just a type of label. Should I have said my diet was developing country tier? What kind of information would that actually convey? Would I be talking about Russia or Greenland?
