I normally ignore news but this has been surprisingly light on details so now I'm curious.
What's actually happened that we know, and what's the accompanying suspicions? Why is it newsworthy?
EDIT
Mike Cernovich summarised it well I think.
A tragedy caused by no-one, a symptom of the general decrease in society wide competence of diversity hires and something that will only increase. Similar to the train derailment or the large explosion in Beirut a few years ago. Corruption and lack of competence on a wide scale causes these accidents.
There will be plane crashes soon.
Saw a breakdown of the interview with their governor. Apparently he admits to Failing to manage the unnatural savanna from fallow plantations. Failed to use emergency alert system because they thought it would cause people to run inland as its usually used for water events. (Very poor rationale.) Electrical grid was poorly maintained. Then he goes on to blame "climate change." @TimOnPoint on twitter posted the breakdown.
I don't know if any of these fires were intentionally started but it sounds like environmental mismanagement and stupidity definitely made the damage worse and it just so happens that is going to be very lucrative for some people.
