The Third Reich lost.
Imperial has more divisors and is human scale. Metric was imposed by government fiat by proto-communists.

America is the only country that follows imperial. This is one of the few things I wish we would follow the rest of the world on and just adopt standard.
Yeah, the Third Reich lost against team Poland, France, Britain, US, Soviet Union.
Poland and France were defeated, and if the US wouldn't have intervened against Germany, they might have won. Or if they'd use sarin gas against Britain or the Soviets.
They've also successfully overthrow the jewish stranglehold on Germany, which is the casus belli for WWII.

If you are used to the metric scale, you don't need a human scale. You know how much 30cm is, how long 1 meter is, how long 1 kilometer is.
It reminds me a little how some people believe that if people wouldn't believe in God (or somehow indirectly), they'd go nigger feral mode. No, it's pretty much overwhelmingly just genetics.
Ultimately it's some arbitrary metric anyway, but the conversion rate of 1:1000 makes it very nice to use. Once you deal with large quantities, it no longer matters anyway. Like what, you want to use the diameter of the Sun as a larger football stadium? And how many feet are bacteria in size?

I don’t need to be used to my own body, though. *“If you already have a million dollars, it’s no trouble to lend out a few tens of thousands!”*
>the conversion rate of 1:1000 makes it very nice to use.
Until you need to divide something into equal thirds.

Well, 30 cm divided by 3 is 10 cm. 1 cm divided by 3 is 0.33 cm. If you have 8 inches and divide it by 3, you'll also have 2.66 inches. If you have a round 10 inches, it's still 3.33 inches.
And the conversion is 1:1000 or 1:10 for metric system (mm, cm, dm, m), and 1:12 for feet-to-inches, so sure, you can divide by 2, 3, 4, 6 and get whole numbers, and for 1:10 you can divide by 2,5 and get whole numbers. With 4 you get one decimal only (10/4 = 2.5).
There is also feet and yards, but if you go by feet, you won't have precision, only rough distances. Then dividing by 3 doesn't matter. And when it comes to anything that isn't some larger distance, like clothing related sizes, you'll have to use inches anyway.
Also inches are 1/12 feet, but both are (have to be) standardized anyway.
And how many inches do 187 feet have? Well, 187m have 1870dm. But for feet it's 187 * 12 = 1870 + 374 = 2244. And what about mm? Are there milli-inches? Or kilo-yards?

But you don’t have that. You have a foot. And a yard. That’s what the units are.
In metric, you sell wood in 120cm lengths (and that has its own name, making it its own unit) because it’s less useful to sell it by the meter directly. Because a meter can’t be divided into equal thirds.

US Military uses, [and have used since 1918](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metrication_in_the_United_States#History), the Metric system, and the Soviet Union used Metric from the get.
Who kicked Germany's ass in WW2?
Takes 2 Metric users to the kick the ass of a Metric user, verdict: Metric fucking WON!
The reason the amerigoyim sheople haven't kicked aipac to the curb is because they're on imperial, which is for corn syrup swilling apoidic barely-literate soyim who measure things with feet like a bunch of deviantart (owned by wix, an israeli company, by the way) users!

Metric is a fruit of the (((French Revolution))). That's all the reason needed to despise it.
Throwing the baby out with the bathwater. France had issues with its really bad measurement system and the revolutionary government corrected it by creating the base-10 measurement system, which just makes sense. Before metric, British standard was the most well-organized system, which is why the anglosphere was so slow to adopt it (that and the relative absence of napoleon). The British empire has been jewish since forever, the current imperial system has its roots in the utterly kiked tudor dynasty, doesn't that make imperial also jewish?
The soviets invented almost all modern methods of heart surgery. If you have a heart attack are you just gonna lay down and die to stand on principle? I hope not, because that's fucking retarded.
Furthermore, I consider that Israel must be destroyed

9mm is pretty much better than .45 just due to higher capacity
Still love my gookslaying 1911 tho

I’m American and I wouldn’t be opposed to switching to the metric system. 20 years ago, people on the US would claim that we would switch someday. That won’t happen anytime soon.
Imperial for human size, metric above and below.
Imperial for temperature but only when baking.
Imperial to weigh myself, metric to weight ingredients.
Canada

Both systems are equally arbitrary. Just [look it up](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_System_of_Units). And this is SI. If you say metric, you are probably using Celsius (which is as dumb as Fahrenheit) and degrees (of angle) which is as arbitrary but at least easily divisible. My favorite way to troll "muh metric is better" cucks is to ask if they use kelvin and radians.
The one valid argument against imperial is that it's over defined. This is why Americans don't understand the difference between mass and weight. But to be fair, people around the world use grams and kilograms to mean weight too. But incoherent units are an abomination. The earth's gravity does not belong in the universal expression for kinetic energy, that is just so retarded.
At any rate, this can be solved by dropping one of the pounds, like swapping slug for the pound-mass, or poundal for the pound-force. You can [read about this](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coherence_(units_of_measurement)) if you want.
