i just wanna say seeing articles about how america is “regressing into a developing nation” should be a tipoff that “developing nation” has never meant a country that is on some path towards becoming a prosperous G5 nation or some shit, it has always been an obfuscating euphemism for a country with low standards of living due to structural exploitation, but calling it what it is would lead to asking just whos doing that exploiting, so we stick with these bullshit titles instead
