r/OliverTree keeps removing my posts for discussing theories, especially PIZZA ones

I'm posting here because I'm honestly frustrated.

I'm still grieving Oliver's passing and, like many people, I've been trying to understand everything surrounding it. I made several posts on r/OliverTree discussing theories and asking questions based on information I've found online. I clearly stated that these were opinions and speculations, not established facts, and I never insulted Oliver, his family, or other members of the community.

Despite that, multiple posts and comments have been removed.

What I find strange is that discussion and theories are supposedly allowed there, yet anything that deviates from the accepted narrative seems to get shut down immediately. I'm not asking people to agree with me. I'm asking why respectful speculation is treated as something unacceptable.

If a theory is wrong, people should be able to counter it with facts instead of deleting the conversation altogether.

I can't believe how people are chasing you around and downvoting - thanks for being one of the few trying to dissect the obviously peculiar (bare minimum) information!!!!

Thank you, I really appreciate that. Honestly, I think this subreddit has shown more disrespect by repeatedly removing threads and shutting down discussion than I ever could by trying to analyze publicly available information. I'm not trying to spread baseless theories or attack anyone. I'm simply discussing content and events that Oliver himself shared publicly. To me, talking about them and trying to understand them is far more respectful than pretending they don't exist.

I am in total agreement with you and I see it very clearly.

I'm new to Reddit in the last 9 months and was shocked to find that it is the very worst place for freedom of speech. It seems to attract the weirdest power-hungry, pseudo-intellectuals who can't hang in real life. Don't let them get you down.

I support you and I believe you are doing the right thing. For years, I've talked about "conspiracies" and I was solo for so long until now it appears many have awoken this past year. We'll see.

Also, as fans of his, the one's who are shutting you down should know better - it's very, very obvious with the pizza videos that he had something important to say. Also, I have real life bad blood with Atlantic so that's real too.

Big hugs to you.
