The day before scientists at CERN announced they had discovered a "Higgs-like" particle, we asked some people in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, about it. We used every response we got to make this video. Read more at Motherboard: http://motherboard.vice.com/2012/7/4/...

    Keep in mind that they are asking random young people from Williamsburg (I assume) which is an extremely limited cross section of the country. Even then, it isn't like subatomic physics is standard curriculum in American high schools, or even colleges. Why would a hypothetical subatomic particle be taught to the general public if it is only hypothetical. More so, keep in mind that this is a video. Videos can be edited to prove a point.

    What the fuck is the point of education in America if these people don't have a clue what's going on in the world? Especially science, but only because I'm biased.

    Hipsters actually exist? I thought they were just a myth.
