This theory is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. It shows this Chad Hanson character doesn’t understand the reasons for the things he does.
He’s clearly overtaken by silly ideology, and has tried to rationalize it with what sounds like a sixth grade social studies project.
Guys like Hanson are typically manipulated by whoever is funding him. The ones supplying the cash are somehow clever enough to convince these fools that “forest fires are good.”
Mich. and Wisc. had some VERY nasty forest fires back in the day.
