    I don’t know if its a common term among white fascists but I can tell you that I have personally seen nonwhite individuals described this way online and even in real life in more backwards parts of North America. This was more than 10 years ago.

    Maybe its only becoming mainstream now. But racists have been talking like this for a long time. You may not be the kind of person they target so it would be hard for you to know.

        Sure bro, I hear what you’re saying. I’m just saying that I’ve heard regressive folk refer to groups of people as third worlders since before 2015. Just because you haven’t heard it doesn’t mean it hasn’t been said (especially if its not a phrase that would typically be directed at you with contempt).
