A single comment that sits at -5 is not proof of some conspiracy to downvote. Is there a thread somewhere with a group of people? I am pretty sure a brigade requires more than one guy.

I have heard everything from 2k to 7k karma pre-controversy. Not sure where the truth is, but either way noone has shown a coordinated effort at all.
People downvote for stupid reasons all the time, do you want a system where someone goes through judging whether up/down votes are legitimate? People could have easily disliked your linked post for its low effort and nonchalant tone. The guy is talking about existential questions, are you the arbiter of what the downvoters were thinking?
Can you find in his history where he coordinated with these people? Is it not possible he was trying to pretend it was a movement of many people so others would be more likely to join him? On the other hand we have hard proof of upvote brigades trying to give upvotes to She... I think her friends doing upvote brigades have no leg to stand on.
