It was by choice. You weren't born with an account.

Not taking personal responsibility for the rise of the ubiquity of these terrible online services (WhatsApp users, I'm looking at you) is a huge part of the problem. Pretending that you didn't opt-in is a lie you've told yourself; you shouldn't propagate that lie to others in society.

Does that mean it can’t be found on the original thread anymore?

No, it just means that it floats to the top rather than being a child of its original parent. If you're not seeing it, that's probably because the thread is paginated and you need to click "More" at the bottom of the page.

I wrote recently about the different reasons why we do this, if anyone's interested: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27132402.
