Inventor of the climb-and-drop method of tuberiding
drives the anti-Musk crowd nuts…again!
Two days ago we welcomed news that surf icon ShaunTomson
had set off leftists worldwide with his fulsome praise of
tech entrepreneur Elon Musk, who is also, like Tomson, a
South African.
“Like him or not, he is a futurist and we better step there with
our eyes open,” wrote the 1977 world surf champ, a man described by
Matt Warshaw as an “Innovative and aristocratic regularfooter and
inventor of the climb-and-drop method of
tuberiding.”
Elon Musk haters quickly pounced on Tomson’s post.
For sure is a futurist, but he is also the one is also the
one who spent words to support Alternative für Deutschland (AfD
extreme right party, fascist/nazist) in Germany. Here in Europe the
far right is growing, also in Italy, and this must be fought if we
do not want history to repeat.
he’s destroying democracy in American…buying politicians to
do his bidding. I wonder would you be ok with him doing that to
your country…a place he left to become a US citizen
paving the road to dystopia. one crypto coin at a time.
there’s nothing futuristic about a return to the late nineteenth
century robber baron age. just because it looks futuristic doesn’t
mean it is. a futurist is more like buckminster fuller or frank
lloyd wright. musk is just a greedy douche. as long as humans don’t
ride on his spaceships, designed and engineered by others with lack
of attention to the kind of process required for man rated
spaceflight, at least no one will get killed.
Shaun Tomson, who turns seventy this year, was off grid with his
wife Carla when the sparks flew, and only saw the flames late
yesterday when he quickly posted on Facebook.
“What a surprise about my last Elon Musk post – so much negative
sentiment about this futurist-like him or hate him, you better take
note of him,” Tomson wrote. “My mission is to spread a positive
wave of hope and purpose around the world and bring people together
through the Surfer’s Code so I was surprised with the
darkness.”
And, then, Tomson delivered the sort of coupe de grace he used
to reserve for his tour competitors.
“For all the Elon Musk haters out
there and for his supporters too, here is a song that I wrote that
you might enjoy – it is about hope and that’s what we all need in
our divided and broken world.”
The song, Take Me Home, although
not to be confused with the John Denver classic, is exhilarating
and audacious. I defy the listener to come away with a mind
unchanged.
And, yet, amid a sea of converts, all praising Shaun Tomson’s
positivity, a few staunch holdouts.
A man who hordes wealth at the expense of the poor and
aligns himself with the worst of us is no role model for the future
of our planet.
if dystopia is the future then musk is a futurist.
go back to sa and stay out of US politics
are you now going to normalize his Hail Hitler salute?
Sounds to me like you are being selective in where you want to seek
your information. Are you normalizing his “freedom of speech”
approach on his Social Media platform? Where you can’t criticize
him but you can spread hate speech, misogyny, and racism?
Good luck with your soul, Shaun. What a disappointment you
turned out to be.
Did song convert you?
Do you now believe Elon Musk is a man of infinite heart or do
you believe he still dresses his foulness up in perfume and
wit?
