Those are outdated terms in the past first world simply meant the U.S. and it's allies while second world was Soviet Union and its acquired countries. Today other terms are used such as very high development, high development (Mexico and a few Latin American countries are on this section) etc, or High income, middle income (Mexico belongs in this group) or low income.

Maybe for some people. There are always prejudices. The society was initially built on racial stratification so I wouldn't be surprised if the attitude passed down for generations, especially among the Mexican elite.
