Added context: the removed comment is from a hexbear, which I find even more ironic, because it was one of the more level-headed ones :)
If they were being reactionary on a lot of other comments in the post then removing all of their comments in the post can be understandable as a means to stop that user from interacting any further. I'm not saying that was exactly the case, but that is sometimes a reason mods remove comments that have nothing reproachable.
It was the worldnews@lemmy.ml but I'm not sure where it is because lemmy.ml does not seem to exist.
