Don't worry about downvotes here. They aren't indicative of the quality or value of a comment any longer. The whole "downvote if you disagree" concept just encourages the disconnect even more.
These days, it's best just to read all of the comments, including any that have been grayed out. A lot of the time they're perfectly legitimate. It's just unfortunate that they're harder to read.

A nice HN addition would be to toggle comment color; that way one could view greyed out comments in isolation relative to upvoted comments and vice-versa.
