Change My Mind

It was invented in England. Is England a shitty third world country?

20 years ago, England had a sensible immigration policy that worked.

Could you tell the pro-Brexit people that, please? They don't believe me. Apparently we were bringing in a migrant population that would outbreed us or some racist crap like that.

SENSIBLE? Same policy since the 50s. Add more of the same immigrants (plus some Eastern Europeans), add their kids, and voila!

Give it 5 years.

That's what racist people said twenty years ago.

And yet somehow still the 5th largest GDP in the world.

So... the third world is every country on Earth except for four of them?

If you REALLY want to nitpick about it, strictly speaking the First World is any NATO ally of the US with no other qualifications.

But as it is generally understood, yes, a "First World" country is thought of as being one of the wealthier countries of the world. If any country that experiences wealth inequality is disqualified then there are no first world countries at all.

Look at the one who plays constipated confounded dolt over the smallest of semantics details go...

"Inequality" means "Inequality," as in relating to equality, or more precisely, the lack of.

That word and its defintion is not a call to action nor a justification for it, it's just a word with a definition.

The USA, through the actions of Orange Man Sad & the hapless RepubliDemocrats, became a Third World Federation in 2017.
If you really think that come the next President and a shrug of the shoulders things go back to the way they were designed to be, someone's been cutting your Tylenol with too much corn syrup.

There ya go, a proper rebuttal from the cantankerous blowhard.

See, you CAN learn.
No need for that flaccid imitation of an artificially inflated ego to get turned into a hockey puck getting pummeled for the enjoyment of the general readership here.

Even you got tired of slathering on the smug. It just dripped off into a messy pile of goo on your little booties anyways.

Aww, Capt Smug has a mirror.
Those tears you see on that bloated balding decrepid face with a beard to compensate? Yours.

Enjoy, Tubbo.

"How can California's GDP be so high and yet San Francisco has shit on the street! But there's no such thing as wealth inequality!"

Take all the time you need. I think we've identified the problem here, you just need to connect your own dots.

Could you not just apply this to every nation and every form in entertainment?

Majority of Americans live paycheck-to-paycheck and plenty of Americans screwed over by the system in one way or another, and yet you have more TV and sports than any nation on earth..
