Doesn’t matter, that’s not what people in America or Europe think and they don’t consider them in the club. The “collective west” and the “global north” and the “first world” are racist clubs filled with white people and nobody in those groups consider Latin America part of it
that’s not what people in the US think, perhaps, but you’ll be surprised to learn europe is a fairly diverse place with a range of opinions
I’m talking about the media classes and elite and rulers who use the terms. When they say “first world” they are not talking about a single country south of Texas
media classes and elite in what country and language? different countries and different languages have different media and different terms. also first world is different from western
If it isn’t in English, German or French then it’s not First World it’s just Sparkling Collective West
It doesn't matter, almost everyone in Europe speaks fluent American English, and in 20 years' time you can remove the "almost"
European American culture influences Europeans 100x more than vice versa. Most Americans can't name anything about modern European mindsets or politics. Most Europeans know everything about America's dirty laundry and social culture.
