The Third Reich lost.

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

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.

> Imperial has more divisors and is human scale.

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!”*

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!

You’re making my argument for me.

Erm, buddy, you're the one using win/loss in a war as a metric for whether the Metric system is le good or le bad
