Mel Gibson, the 69-year-old actor, has found himself at the center of a social media storm after sharing a conspiracy theory about the Los Angeles wildfires on live TV. The controversy comes after Gibson revealed that his Malibu mansion had been destroyed in the blaze.
Gibson appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast, where he shared the news of his home’s destruction. He later spoke on Elizabeth Vargas Reports on NewsNation, describing the loss of his multi-million dollar mansion as “devastating” and “emotional.”
Gibson recounted the moment he learned of his home’s destruction while he was in Austin, Texas. He described the scene as “a complete burn,” adding that he had never seen anything like it before.
However, it was Gibson’s subsequent comments that sparked outrage on social media. He shared a conspiracy theory about the wildfires, which many users deemed “insane” and “misinformed.” The backlash was swift, with many criticizing Gibson for spreading unfounded theories about the devastating fires.
