    That’s really interesting. I never knew that.

    Its not really about bigfoot, infact he makes a point to push the narrative that bigfoot isn’t real at all

    I grew up in Humboldt Co, living around 100lb growers in every direction. I could throw a rock and hit a farmer every toss.

    I think the way he portraited the whole scene in the emerald triangle was pretty disingenuous, framing most of the newer growers being outwardly racist and violent to the Mexican/South American farm hands. Yet not once does bring up the cartels starting wars with local farmers or how the cartels would destroy acres of land in the National Forests along with killing entire ecosystems in creeks with pesticides and fertilizer.

    Two wrongs do not make a right and I’m not saying he’s wrong about the racism, however he didn’t paint an accurate picture of the conflict up there. And I think the more complete history is far more interesting.

    If he’s going to be on, or if anyone is interested in this kind of stuff, I would love to write in depth more about what I’ve mentioned to just give people a better example of the conflict and human ecosystem in Humboldt/Mendocino. Maybe mixed in with a couple of Sasquatch stories. I grew up in Willow Creek, home of the bigfoot Museum and Patty.
