Mel Gibson is known for his controversial ideas and beliefs. He’s known for rather explosive conversations and lives for diving deep into conspiracy theories. Something unexpected happened though when he was interviewed on The Ingraham Angle, where Gibson offered one of the most outlandish ideologies yet. The focus was on the California wildfires that devastated Los Angeles. This time, his usual followers were left shaking their heads in dismay.
Mel Gibson began by questioning the circumstances around the wildfires that started last Tuesday. He suggested that they may not have been as naturally occurring as previously assumed, insinuating a more sinister source. He suggested that they were deliberately set to clear the area of residents due to the monetary value of the land. “It’s just too convenient,” he remarked. The area has been recognized for its housing crisis in the past, s according to him, there was a grander scheme at play.
Conspiracies Catch Fire Online
Mel Gibson doesn’t seem to stand alone on this one either – there are a host of videos popping up with similar theories. Even Elon Musk weighed in on the matter, adding fuel to the fire by suggesting a connection between the fires and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. While these claims lack any real basis, they have taken root in online communities. The loss o lie and homes has been turned into a waging war breeding speculation.
“Messing with the Water”
Mel Gibson didn’t stop there. He also suggested that one of California’s broader issues is officials “messing with the water” by allowing water reserves to flow away for uncertain reasons. “California has a lot of problems that baffle the mind as to why they do things,” he said. “And then in events like this, you sort of look… well, is it on purpose?”
While Gibson didn’t elaborate much, his comment sparked a debate regarding the real issues with water management in the state, further muddling things and causing an even more shaky argument. This led to even further conspiracies popping up.
