    Why are Americans so bad at geography 🤦

    You do know there’s a world outside of the US and Europe, yeah? Like other places are a thing that exist? And guess what - they all use Celsius!

    This isn’t a Europe Vs US thing. This is a US Vs the world thing, with Americans expecting their way to be taken seriously by everyone.

    Don’t be surprised when people want to use the actual standard.

      It’s an incredibly euro-centric view to think that the rest of the world uses the metric system. Heck, even the UK mixes and matches units contextually. Plenty of global industries apply their own standards.

      I’ve never seen an American on the Internet suggest China move from Chi to Feet, for example. Europeans just assume that they use Meters because they’re polite enough to just do the conversion on their end for international trade.
