LA Wildfires: Conspiracy Theories Swirl as Sean Diddy and Other Angles Emerge on the Internet; EXPLAINED

Amidst the ongoing wildfires in Los Angeles that have resulted in 25 fatalities and the destruction of numerous structures such as businesses and homes over the past week, a wave of sorrow and despair has been accompanied by an assortment of bizarre conspiracy theories spreading online. As the flames continue to rage, speculative rumors about the fires’ origin have ignited discussions among social media users.

Some conspiracy theories propose that the fires were intentionally set to destroy potential evidence regarding sexual abuse accusations against Diddy. On her podcast, former government official Catherine Austin Fitts posed a question, “How many of the homeowners were on Diddy’s guest list?”, hinting at an unproven list of Hollywood celebrities rumored to have attended his drug-infused parties.

The theory postulates that the fires, starting on Tuesday, January 7th in Pacific Palisades, may have been deliberately lit to safeguard individuals associated with Diddy and to demolish an alleged underground tunnel system leading to places such as the Playboy Mansion. Remarkably, Diddy’s home in Holmby Hills has remained untouched by the fierce flames, despite neighboring properties being consumed.

A strange theory circulating online suggests that California’s high-speed rail network is connected to the recent fires, claiming they were intentionally set to make way for the train tracks. Internet users have pointed out that the size and location of the wildfires align with the proposed rail route. However, fact-checkers found these maps to be inaccurate.

In simpler terms, Actor Mel Gibson raised doubts about the circumstances surrounding certain fires, suggesting they might have been deliberately set for redevelopment purposes. He expressed his suspicions in an interview with Fox News, stating, “It just seemed odd that there was no water available, the wind conditions were favorable, and people were ready to start fires.

To round up the strange theories linking the L.A. wildfires to conspiracy, there was talk about the potential use of an “energy weapon” as the cause, with supporters citing surviving palm trees as evidence. The question was posed: “Why are cars and houses burned, but trees remain standing?” One online user asked this. The explanation provided by experts is that palm trees have a higher water content, making them more resistant to fire.

In response to some of the most severe wildfires Los Angeles has ever experienced, LAFD Chief Erik Scott appeals to the public to ignore unfounded rumors and instead concentrate their efforts on recovery and rebuilding.
