If you make a comment that's downvoted, it gradually becomes invisible to the extent that people have to select it to view it.
I know from experience that either people do just that and then downvote or else downvote unread.
Either way it smacks of kicking a dog when it's down.
It seems anomalous that when a comment is upvoted no one knows it except the person voting and the person getting the vote but when you're downvoted everyone knows it.
