Kelly Slater shines spotlight on bizarre Indonesian custom of “kidnapping” children at Christmas

“Black Santa reflects Indonesia's diverse cultural tapestry, where local traditions blend with those from colonial history.”

The world’s greatest surfer, Kelly Slater as if it had to be said, is a persecuted luminary, a mystico-elitist misunderstood by the common run of men.

The eleven-time world champion, who will turn fifty-three, in short course is always ahead of the curve, whether it be the dangers of blindly following government mandate, circumcision or matters of geo-political significance.

He will often hit back at historically inaccurate trolls, delivering the dagger blow, his coup de grace, with precise timing and accuracy.

“Accusing me of being a racist? My girlfriend is Chinese. You’re on glue,” he told one troll. “You’re a miserable coward. And now you’re blocked.”

Earlier today, to mark the celebration of the birth of the Jewish rabbi Jesus in Judea 2024 years ago, Kelly Slater shared a reel of a child being “kidnapped” as part of Indonesia’s notorious Santa Black pranks, a legacy of its Dutch colonial masters.

In Indonesia, particularly in areas influenced by Dutch culture, Christmas celebrations include figures like Sinterklas (Santa Claus) and Zwarte Piet (Black Piet). Zwarte Piet is traditionally portrayed as Santa’s helper who, according to folklore, would take bad chillun away in his sack.

The little ones are not actually taken away, of course, but have the hell scared out of ’em and are subsequently rewarded with gifts or candy.

Kelly Slater enjoyed the show immensely as evidenced by his use of the praise hand emoji on his repost.

New York’s Hamptons, Beverly Hills in Los Angeles and Saint Tropez in France have a similar tradition. Children are taken away to what are called White Parties, although their fates remain, to this day, unknown.

Happy Christmas everyone!

I’m not sure who wrote this sketch. A Black Santa who doesn’t bring gifts but, in turn, abducts the groms instead? That’s good humor and should be applauded.

Heh, some of the Groms round here should be euthanised.
Little cunts.

over here there are men in big overcoats with boiled lollies in their pockets looking after all the kiddies…they even take them home to show them the real meaning of happy Holidays!
