Wew lads

But seriously, this is the purpose of measuring things in pl8s. It's the one universal measurement we all understand, whether you're an American master race or a worthless yurop cuck.

i could probobly The Press 50,000kg on the moon, moon is not relevant. Gravity - earth is.

1ton = 1000kg
1kg = 1000g
1g = 1000mg

1km = 1000 cm
1m = 1000 cm
1cm = 1000 mg

1lt = 1000ml

Why would you be against this is unreal to me but they haven't changed it so there has to be a reason i guess

Fuck off you communist idiot. We are not changing anything. We are the best country that ever existed, we are the most free people on this planet. There is no reason why we should do something just because eurocucks want us to do it.

Lifting with lbs plates is fucking shit too.

All the plates fit into each other in multiples of 2 with kilograms.

2x 5kg plates = 10kg
2x 10kg plates = 20kg

but in murrica

2x 10lbs plates =/= 25lbs
2x 25lbs plates =/= 45lbs

When I was lifting over there, I noticed that even they would struggle to do plate maths sometimes, despite using lbs all the time. With KGs it's easy as fuck.

>>39503457
This. You'd have to have 22.5lbs/11.25lbs/5,625/2,8125lbs plates to make it as intuitive as 20/10/5/2.5/1.25kg.

>>39503849

Yeah, because you never make a mistake multiplying 0.4535 with 187 in a hurry.

Plus it doesn't help with making people more adept with numbers, in the same way that forcing people to drive with one hand in a vice won't make them better drivers.
