If the universe culminates into a giant joke and no one is around to laugh, is the joke still funny? Or is that the punchline.

Of course it’s legit! The prayer has been floating around since Chávez’s death, in several versions. This one was recently read out at the 3rd Congress of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), when the international media took notice of it. You can hear it – in Spanish, of course – here:

Haitian Catholicism + Revolutionary Nationalism =

“Our Doc, who are in the National Palace, hallowed be thy name in the present and future generations. Thy will be done at Port-au-Prince as it is in the Provinces. Give us this day our new Haiti and never forgive the trespasses of the anti-patriots who spit every day on our country. Let them succumb to temptation, and under the weight of their venom, deliver them not from any evil”

Reputedly recited daily by all schoolchildren in Haiti during Papa Doc’s presidency. From his ‘Catechism of the Revolution’ (1968)

1. Rewrite for US prog pantheon
2. Inject into prog-drone meme-hives
3. Denounce the resistant (“This is kitsch and awful!” ->”Wow. Who are you to denounce the simple folk who hunger for social justice and express themselves you raycis?!”)
4. ABJECT????
