Also, "democracy" on a platform where anyone can have as many accounts across as many instances as they want is doomed. If anything you'd just be offering those power-tripping, time-flush aholes an extra veneer of legitimacy.
I don't believe for a second that 90% of top posts aren't already being manipulated to some degree, even if just by an individual with a bunch of extra accounts. It's just too easy to do for it not to be the case.
