the term “3rd world” has been redefined to mean “impoverished”. but african, asian, & latin countries weren’t impoverished to begin with. they were stripped of their beauty, riches, & culture when their resources were taken away from them through colonialism

the people of these countries have elaborate/innovative histories, lifestyles, & traditions. but “1st world” countries took everything away from them, claiming that they haven’t “evolved” to western ideals

this link contains a masterlist of resources if you’d like to be further educated about global tragedies, current events, & various social justice movements (such as the blm movement, the ongoing crises in yemen & palestine, trans rights, etc.) https://currentinfo.carrd.co/ 

umm so just to clarify: my tweets were in regard to a celebrity’s deleted tweets about “3rd world” countries. also, this is my stan account & i usually just talk about films & timothée chalamet on here :,) so if you’ve followed this account, my main account is @YASSXA
