    WTF are you talking about? The Europeans that “killed and burned” the natives mostly stayed, they call themselves Americans now. Look at a map of America at the time of the revolution, and you’ll see there was a lot of killing and displacing natives after the USA’s independence. Don’t blame this on modern day Europeans, blame this on your ancestors (assuming you’re american).

    No, it’s correct, metric time is just using seconds for everything, you end up with minutes, hours, days,… as auxiliary units. And then there’s decimal time, which tries to divide the day into 10 hours, the French tried to introduce that during the revolution.
