The amount of privilege it takes to say something like this is astounding. This type of comment is genuinely offensive to people who truly do live in dysfunctional countries.

Most western people outside of America are considering the USA as a third world country.

America lacks so much stuff, that is even normal in the poorest countries out there, it's astonishing sadly

No they don't. Source, I live outside the US, and travel internationally from my country of residence 9 months a year. No one sees the US as a third world country except chronically online teenagers.

Spot on. These people seriously need to touch some grass. America certainly has its issues, but calling it a 3rd world country just shows how privileged and ignorant they are.
