This is an old argument with unclear answers, but third world countries are a thing for many reasons and you can't dismiss their woes. Excusing it with "we were also poor once" is nonsense.
Not dismissing anything. Just wondering why they haven't managed to deal with their problems while we did, even though we were dirt poor until very recently too.

I'm sure there are absolutely no geological or hydrological difference between the Netherlands and Bangladesh. It must be because they don't go skiing or snowboarding.

Yes, actually, the Netherlands was richer than Bangladesh today. The Netherlands in the 1600s was literally a monopolist in many forms of advanced global commerce. Bangladesh today is at the bottom of the food chain supplying labour for simple consumer products. But, please, tell us more about race theory and how you are smarter, by association with white people, than those brown people like Muhammad Yunus (new phone, who that?).

The Netherlands historically has very bad floods from the sea every decade or couple of decades, but is mainly in the business of preserving land deliberately and artificially reclaimed from the sea. Bangladesh is on a gigantic river delta that floods every year. Seriously, not everything is about reductive pro-white race theory.
