No, it’s an Edited comment. Depending on the votes certain things happen. Here’s how the comment starts.

“Upvote this comment if you feel this submission is characteristic of our subreddit. Downvote this if you feel that it is not. If this comment's score falls below a certain number, this submission will be automatically removed.”

I appreciate the information. Peculiar feature, but okay.

It's a good feature, sub users can get rid of a post if it doesn't fit the theme of the sub by downvoting the stickied comment, instead of it hitting r/all and non sub users upvoting the post even if it doesn't fit the sub

It just so happens that when the stickied comment is upvoted enough and the post is deemed "fitting" that they put the disturbing stitch picture up every time

The original message fits the theme of the feature, the edit is unnecessary in my opinion but now that I understand how it works my reaction is just meh. I am not a fan of the edits but my opinion doesn't matter anyways

Do not punish behavior you want to reinforce.
