This is disturbing. We seem to be seeing echoes of the anti-German paranoia and anti-Japanese paranoia that riddled WW1 and WW2 respectively. Let’s keep in mind why America beat the Nazis: “Because our German scientists were better than their German scientists.”

Pretty clever trick. Celcius is the percentage around a semicircle, Fahrenheit gives the angle (plus 32).
This makes for handy intuitive conversions like
25°C = 32 + 45 = 77°F.
50°C = 32 + 90 = 122°F.
Even handier if you're comfortable rounding 32 to 30.
Between 0°C and 100°C are 180°F. This allows for a nice mnemonic to convert between those units using an angle as a guide for °F.
