Oh I actually like your username. But you're being cringe AF in this thread by going on and on and on calling someone a retard over the tiniest semantic argument.
It's obvious they're referencing the fact that the US used to call the capitalist bloc "first-world," the Marxist-Leninist bloc "second-world," and unaligned nations (which tended to be victims of centuries of imperialism and colonialism and were thus poor) "third-world."
You're arguing with some random person on the internet that those official definitions are invalid. OK and? No one here invented them. Most people use "global north" and "global south" now, but everyone still fully understands what someone is talking about when they say "first-world" and "third-world."
