user-1: Is someone here editing my comments? That is very creepy and "militant" if so!
I have brought it up with stackexchange in general; I hope it's nothing to do with them.

user254: A moderator can do that, yes.
I don't remember doing so recently, but it's not impossible that I might have, there's been a lot to moderate today.
I generally don't -- if a comment needs editing (because it's hostile or something) I'd usually delete it instead.
If you'd like to reference a specific comment which you think might have been edited (post its URL), I can tell you whether somebody edited it.

Edit to add: I found the comment you were asking about. Yes Andrei edited it, changing "strike" to "murder" before answering it. Id don't know why -- maybe he was setting up a more convenient example to answer?
Anyway you deleted that comment.
When you delete a comment then the whole conversation (dialog) tends to stop making sense, people replying to since-deleted comment, so I clean up by deleting the remainder.
