No disrespect intended to our intelligent US friends, but are these real? Can people really be so ignorant?

As there is no speaking in the video, I recommend turning the sound down to avoid the annoying music.

Unfortunately they think they are the greatest at everything too! Totally clueless most of them, especially if they live in red states!

You can't fool me with your trick questions, Paul.
Only one of the 2 emoticons you posted is a smiley.
The other needs a hug.

I think it's just "clueless Twitter Users" if anything considering they're representative of less than 1% of any country's population. Kinda tells you a lot about who uses social media. ;)

I do find it funny that they posted @2:23 one of the worst "clap backs" ever. The response is even more clueless than the original post. NASA in 1969 did in fact use US Standard (it's not actually Imperial, which is its own issue) for all its measurements on the Apollo mission. The change to metric as the standard wasn't until 20+ years later (in 1990). Even then, both US Standard and Metric were used after depending on the project lead and other factors. I mean, we crashed a probe into Mars because NASA wasn't consistent (Mars Climate Orbiter - 1999).
