This concept is just as dangerous as the right wing claiming LHC will open black holes. There's an implication here that just as soon as LHC was turned on it suddenly gathered information about every unknown Force, particle, and energy in the universe.
The Large hadron collider took 4 years to confirm the higgs boson; as of today it is only on its third data collection run. LHC is hardly a silver bullet.
Since my votes for the presidential race are insulated from the vote count via electors in both the primary and national elections, I choose not to cast a vote for any loudmouth figurehead. Instead, I concentrate my energy on elections that affect my daily life; i.e. local and State races, including Senate and House of Representative races.

SHOCKING NEWS: Politicians lie, even to one another.
It is absolutely the way it works on Reddit. Go into any subreddit and say something factual but unpopular and watch what happens to the vote count.
Not understanding that upvotes are popularity driven might be the first error.
Make your posts, ask your questions, and move on. If people are interested it'll get traction. If they're not, expect apathy or downvotes. Just the way it works.
One more day in paradise.
