That's not what "Third World" originally meant; Third World was used to refer to the non-aligned countries, those countries that were neither aligned with the US and NATO (the "First World") nor the Soviet Union and the Warsaw pact (the "Second World").

Well, I concede that point; but even then it was used incorrectly considering that these third world nations comprised of the most developed nations in the West: Switzerland/Finland etc...

Still, the post is seething with just arrogance as much as it was misinformed and my point remains.
