Is USA a third world country?

Serious discussion.
No memes
I really can't understand the mentality of living in a country where it's normal for people to get shot full fucking stop.
It's just so fucking alien as you can see from the fallout when Joe Cox got stabbed and shot in our country.
And it's not just the shooting but the poverty, education and health which is unbelievable

When does this "too big to fail" dissolve and America fucking sorts itself out?

I was planning on going for a few months at the end of the year but I'm starting to have second thoughts

No

Because, 1st world meant the US and allies, the 2nd world was the Soviet Union and allies, and 3rd world was everyone else.

That's not what it means though.

Well maybe rename it to a "developing country "
Or a "regressive country"

Just because nonwhites drag the averages down doesn't mean you can assume the whole country isa shithole. Would it be fair to judge the whole of England based on how London is?

>I really can't understand the mentality of living in a country where it's normal for people to get shot full fucking stop.

welcome to club, friendo

No.

considering I have a toilet to shit in, running water, electricity, and a steady internet and power, then no, the US is not a third world country

Well you'd better start understanding it, hombre.

wow its almost like completely balkanised areas of the country represent the its ethnic 3rd world country of origin.

You guys are going to be the new Brazil in our lifetime and the more your pussy ass white population bends over and lets brownies act up and kick your sand castle down the worse it's going to get.

Don't get me wrong, though. We're in trouble here too.

>Is USA a third world country?

Not yet, but will be within 20 years.

Huge country, lots of areas of extremes one way or the other.

You Europeans have a very skewed image of the USA from news stories and pol. You are guilty of the ethnocentric worldview many of us have.

The USA is an enormous country geographically and numerically. We have a large black population which is segregated from the rest of the country and riddled with crime and poverty. Most Americans never enter neighborhoods like in OPs pic, even whites who live in the same city. To ask of the USA is a third world country is being woefully ignorant or purposefully obtuse.

just the black parts

What are you talking about? That is exactly what it means.

Not one faggot here knows what 3rd world, 1st world nation means
>back to reeddddddditttttt

>I really can't understand the mentality of living in a country where it's normal for people to get shot full fucking stop.

There are less than a dozen dilapidated urban enclaves that are responsible for the overwhelming majority of gun violence statistics.

Remove those and we're on par with euro countries, basically if you're not black and not in a gang you won't ever see any real violence.

It just doesn't meet the qualifications of a third world country.

USA is a very stratified country: there are people who live like 3rd worlders and there are people who live in unparalleled luxury. I would say there are a few neighborhoods in several major cities which can be considered as first world, however the majority of the country is on par with former soviet union or North Korean cities and there are lots of africa-tier ghettos. But to say USA is a first world country period is a bit of a stretch.

First, second and third world are terms lifted from the Cold War. You're looking for "developed, developing, and undeveloped", and in which case yes the US is still quite developed. Urban Youth containment zones don't represent the US at large any more than Rotheram represents the UK.

You are more likely to be killed in a mass shooting in fucking Switzerland then in the US.

>UK "education"

>Is the US a 3rd world country
Obama is trying his hardest to make it that way. Technically speaking "3rd world countries" are those who didn't side with NATO or the Commies during the Cold War.

>I really can't understand the mentality of living in a country where it's normal for people to get shot full fucking stop.

Diffents cultures desu, I just can`t understand the mentality of living in a country where you can`t defend yourself, and you cry to big daggy state to save your ass everytime something bad happens.

Where a pensioner in a wheelchair is punished for trying to defend himself:

>hurr durr durr
Stay cucked.

>shitposting this sloppily

What about it?

What are you, retarded? This was the category system we used to have proxy wars you fucking bong. All of you bongs fuck this up.

How many cities have you been to

It varies.

Blacks have taken over our cities and ruined a lot of them. Even the people that work in the big cities will not live in them because of how bad they are getting. You would have no problems visiting here as long as you knew which places to avoid and remembered the golden rule "around blacks never relax." Kang nigger has emboldened blacks to act out even more. It was not this bad 8 years ago.

Think of the USA as the European Union. Since the EU wants to become the USA.

In the EU, you have rich, "white", nice countries where standards are high, people are educated and violence is low. Some US states are like that. But even in those states, you can have cities full of "migrants" or niggers that drastically up the violence and reduce the standards compared to the rest of the country/state.

Then you can have countries that are poor and shitty (like Romania or Spain), rife with violence, poverty, lack of education. Louisiana is the equivalent to this in the USA.

...

i've been to new york last year. talked to a lot of people. compared to my country it looked like a total nightmare to live there. they were talking about their living space. unaffordable and most lived in a room. nothing more. could not afford it. adults living in a fucking room, sharing a toilet with others. they all had multiple jobs and worked almost non stop to pay their bills. our tour guide told me he wanted to move to france with his wife because schools were so expensive they could not afford it. good education in general is so expensive to the average new yorker they can't afford it. they were talking about the nightmare that is obama care and how nobody could afford it. a lot of people are not ensured. you get sick, you tough it out. that is africa tier living there. living in a box, working all day long, no education, no healthcare, no future for your kids. talked to a banker aswell. a republican. i finally understood why people would be so hearthless to their fellow human beings. it's because they are literally fighting for scraps. you stop caring for the homeless and poor when your about to join them if you dont vote for the republicans.

Yes
I have been to 20+ states and I assure you that it is a fucked up place. Some states are ok but there is some seriously poor and scary places full of gun lunatics and obese "women"
And they are all convinced they are the best country in the world, it's amazing

according to Sup Forums only the bad parts of chicago & detroit

The edges are ok but never go to the middle part, it's where they keep their retards

fpbp

You definitely shouldn't come. There's very strong anti-UK sentiment. You'd be lucky to make it out alive.

>New York
>USA

Why does everyone think the US is either NYC or Texas?

Not in Texas. They'd probably want to learn about where you're from.

in burgerland? 0.
Exactly: some trailer park hillbillies in Alabama seriously think they're a part of the "GREATEST COUNTRY IN DA WURLD" meme. Murikans are hilariously delusional.

Any where their is blacks in large numbers is a shithole they go hand in hand.

Texas isn't even bad though. It's so easy to own a home and get a job here.

No there is not, this user is making shit up.

You'd be fine. It's not like you're going to hang out in the black ghetto while you're visiting.

OP is a tremendous faggot.

>look at where all the monkeys live! All Americans must live there!

It's really a problem of demographics. Whites didn't reproduce. Browns did. That's it.

>is the US not the US nor the USSR nor an ally respectfully thereof

>serious discussion

Yeah. They're literally North Korea tier brainwashed.

>Jew York

This is what I'm talking about. One of our cities could be an entire country in Europe. Meanwhile if you visited me, I live in a 0 crime small city, I don't need to lock my doors even. We work as much as want and can afford a comfy lifestyle. I have a big yard. It's beautiful and semi rural.

I might as well be in a different planet than Jew York, yet I am in the same country.

Finally somebody gets it right

Pretty much, Trump is our last chance to avoid turning away from democracy, the rule of law, capitalism, and all the other things that made America great.

Hopefully the Obama Administration's preview of what will happen under Hillary will change enough minds, but to all appearances it's just made the feminists more determined to tear everything down.

American middle class whites are in the middle of a massive opiate addiction and suicide epidemic.

You know as well as I do people from the UK practically drown in American pussy when they visit here, but have another (You)

Read the thread you twat
It's literally the first post

>Is USA a third world country?
yes... because having a small clique of ruling elite - e.g., like in S.Arabia - does not constitute First World status

the U.S. is a cesspool nation in civil war stasis that tries to dissemble its underlying inquietude behind Hollywood, greed and junk food brain degradation -- something that was kept plausibly denialable... until the Internet Age arrived.

There are some parts of the United States that I would call 3rd world, like Detroit and Chicago. And those kinds of places are where most of the violent crime takes place. But it is really sad, plenty of people in those areas are there because they're too poor to get out, and just being there boosts their chances of getting killed tremendously. You got me on the education and healthcare.

I agree, but even in our own country people think everyone in Texas rides horses and shoots revolvers in the air all day.

>somebody thinks you can't crack someone's skull open with a rubber mallet

It's an issue of scale and demographics. The USA is vast geographically and has large populations of niggers.

Say what you will about spics and Injuns and slops and every other minority group, niggers commit the OVERWHELMING majority of crime and violence. Mostly against each other (which is why most non-blacks rarely experience or know a victim of a shooting).

Overall crime, including murders and assaults, has been dropping for 20 years. Generally speaking, the USA is a safer place than it was in 1990; however, gangs in cities are getting worse.

Take out niggers and the violence rate approaches some European countries.

1st world: Libertarian (Democracy & Western Civilization)
2nd world: Authoritarian (Communism & Socialism)
3rd world: Anarchy (Tribalism & Theocracy)

It's becoming one thanks to Obama.
I expect Hillary would continue the trend.

Please please learn the definition of 1st 2nd and 3rd world.

>There are some parts of the United States that I would call 3rd world, like Detroit and Chicago.
the very cities that were beacons unto the capitalist, materialist world on a few decades ago

>a strength of a nation is measured by its weakest links

There's two Americas: the apple pie front porch flag waving two car driveway America, then there's the black ghetto get shot for your shoes America. It's very easy to tell where one starts and the other ends. Stay out of the ghettos and I promise you will have a great time.

where do they actually do this? cos thats where i wanna be

Niggers are a 3rd world country.

So are Mexicans that is why we call them Mexicans!

And after enough brownies overpopulate and run the country into the ground with all the libcucks and 3rd world shit lovers backing them. Then yes everything will go to shit like a 100% nigger ran store with bad management so on so forth!

How long can the owner keep taking a loss till he has to pull out? How long will the white co worker put up with it until nigger ignorance stupidity and shit is to much to put up with?

Buy a piece of property. You can do this if you want.

Chicago is an excellent city with some shit neighborhoods. Most of the city is perfectly safe and rather upscale and expensive.

Chicago is actually a nice city. It isn't like Detroit at all.

Its starting to get that way. Our infrastructure is falling apart. Over the past two years or so, everytime theres been even the slightest rain storm or wind gust that barely reaches 10 mph, there are power outages that last HOURS. These are just normal storms with the typical rain and occasional thunder. Sometimes during a particularly rainy week, the power will literally go out daily, multiple times per week or even multiple times pet day. Sure, I might not live in a major metro center, but I still live in a fairly large city with a population of around 300,000- so this is not excusable in the slightest. Ive seen legit third world countries with better electric infrastructure than this, no joke.

If you don't count nigger related death, we're a pretty safe country. We don't have a gun problem, we have a nigger problem.

Well kind of. Their middle class lives like animals and are almost poor. They eat like animals, their food is shit and pure cancer. Education is a luxury and school system is shit tier, people there think Europe is a country ffs. Mass shootings on regular basis. Gang wars. No culture at all (if u don't count twerking and trap as culture which you should not) so I guess... they kinda ar 3rd world country

New York is a pretty but exception to the American rule mate, they've done studies that show buying Austrian Castles can be cheaper than getting a 3 bedroom in Brooklyn.

NYC is just an insanely popular international city with no room to fit everyone, I live in a comfy major city in the US and can afford a house, and two cars making an average salary at 24.

That tour guide you had just needs to grow up and consider moving to an up and coming place like Austin or Boston if he wants affordable living

> I have no fucking idea what I'm talking about: the post.

>overwhelmong majority
Not really, a little under half, BUT they're only 14% of the population.

>Boston
>Affordable

Is this bait?

>Education

"Education" as a random political point to bring up is a pop-political meme. I grew up in a country richer than the USA... and have also experienced Canadian/USA education. Structurally there are differences but the lessons are the same. NA and EU have the same bland cookie-cutter public education for the middle and upper class and normal working class. Don't know about private.

Well, ghetto schools are bad, but the emphasis in the US has been to try to bring minority schools up to par which contrary to what Sup Forums might think has worked, the number of inner-city "dropout factories" has drastically shrunk and a lot of formerly lawless ghetto schools now have strict discipline and rising test scores. Not on par with western whites yet but getting better.

Suicide is a human right tbqh
Canadian towns and cities are indistinguishable from US ones, down to the suburbias, fatties and soulless grids. "Canadians" are the most delusional and cringeworthy fedora type of Yank, goddamn. You're 100% Amerifat

It could seem that they certainly are taking a turn for the worse, in many aspects.

Economy going to shit, several developing world tier cities such as Detroit, the highest prison population in the entire world, disproportionate use of force and punishment for petty crimes, mass shootings being a regular thing, massive surveillance, lack of due process.


For us Europeans, a lot is just so fucking alien, and a lot of things that are going on have very negative connotations for us, such as the NSA surveillance, because we have things such as Eastern Germany fresh in memory and we know that shit ain't good.

While far from a full on third world police state, The US simply share a lot of elements with authoritarian shitholes, and it is becoming more and more evident for Europeans.

There is a lot of media coverage in Europe on things that would never be accepted here, such as civil asset forefeitfure, private prison owners, retarded judges and obviously unreasonable jury decision, not to mention the ongoing anti-abortion fad and creationism being taught as truth.

I also think the rampant anti-intellectualism on both sides of the political spectrum, but particularly on the religious right, makes us draw an unconscious parallel between the US and theocracies such as Iran. Anti-intellectualism is a trait shared with Islamic countries, which, contrary to what basement dwellers will tell you, most Europeans fucking hate.

To most Europeans, US politics is way too influenced by religion. That's not because most Europeans are fedora tipping atheists, it's because even to devoted Catholics, US politics just seems to batshit insane.

Bamafag here, sometimes it feels that way desu senpai.

>No culture at all
>Education
>u

wew. You can't bring up the pop-political point of Culture and not understand that the definition of such is human behaviour and the ways it is expressed. It's impossible for people to be without culture. You follow the plebian uneducated belief of culture as "that which is exotic to me"

The median income is 51,000 or so which is insanely high for a non-microstate. How people spend it is another thing, but anglo North Americans are pretty rich. That's really the one reason I've decided to stay here is that jobs here shovel money at you because of how innovative the economy is

Yeah nah I don't have to dodge bullets or deal with drooling obese retards daily.
Stay brainwashed

Well your middle class is fucking destroyed. You are either rich or poor. High education is quite expensive or am I wrong? Your health care is utter shit or am I wrong? Oh yeah, remind me how often do you hear about school shooting in Germany? And how often in the US and A? Oh, and don't go "b-but it's the niggs" cause mostly whitey shoots up their school. Your country trully never was great. You are delusional and brainwashed. Feel free to go durka durr on me now but you know it's true. Now pop a xanax and tune in to Fox news.

Lol at all the exaggeration from Europeans in this thread. Most Americans live a comfy as fuck life.

>Canadians as a whole are smarter than white Americans
wew laddie

Sure. Comfy. Nice elections by the way. Amazing candidates. A meme and a lying retarded slut. Comfy as fuck

>Well your middle class is fucking destroyed. You are either rich or poor.

That's weird, almost every single person I know is "middle class" and lives a comfy as fuck life. Vacations, a car for every driver, every family member has the latest iPhone, PS4, 60" TV.

>High education is quite expensive or am I wrong?

Yeah, it is. But I am easily paying off my ridiculous loans from the private school I chose to go to (I could have went to state school for almost nothing).

>Your health care is utter shit or am I wrong?

I have an entry level job and I have health care, dental, eye car. I even see degenerate welfare scum talking about their chiropractor appointments on Jewbook. Comfy as fuck.

Me and my girlfriend make fuck-all money. Entry level positions making $35k. We live in a "trendy" area of a major American metro. Cost of living is high. If I look outside right now, I'll only see blacks and spics walking around (all the whites are at work). But it's all so comfy. Life is easy as fuck for the average American.

It's amazing how they manage to be highly religious and world leaders in production of degenerate pornography or other shit at the same time.

Mass shootings are different from everyday shootings.

Look at your dictator and your entire meme leadership. Jew-loving EU slave cuck.

>le nigger meme

Always the first fucking post

Wew

I like when amerifats get upset and they just say a bunch of random buzzwords like it's an argument

In some parts of Texas there's still a lot of poverty and crime.

If you actually work and not for some shit fast food restaurant or some part time shit you should have all medical covered.

I work for amazon and they pay for 95% of any college fees I have. They also give me a shit ton of vacation and I can move all around the US and Europe. I have complete medical coverage and make $16 an hour. Life is pretty easy here as long as you aren't a dindu retard.

>Germany, the homeland of Merkel and the master of the EU
>Criticizing literally any other country on Earth for their politicians
lol

Lived in us for 5 years. Realized there is no single USA. The swings in culture and affluence are unreal. It is first world on average but that average hides a lot of different answers to your question. My observation is that any statement about "the USA" is hard because there will be a significant minority that refutes the claim.

Some parts yes
