mostly agree but when someone’s coordinating multiple accounts, it’s a form of astroturfed censorship at some point. especially for people who sort comments by hot / top.
you might be fine with him being silenced, but don’t act like it’s benign.
Comment on My comments are suddenly all being mass downvoted. Looking for some help.

The thing to do is stop giving a shit about downvotes. They will have zero impact your life unless you give them that power.

This. Just laugh at the idea that there’s someone out there with such a sad existence that they spend time stalking people on this app.

On one hand, I completely and totally hear you. The thing that people don’t think about is that they do color someone’s initial impression of a comment. So you’re significantly more likely to get more negative engagement from others that way. It’s why some places/sites sometimes obscure the initial votes for a set number of time.
