Magda was kicked off EF [as were many others of her political persuasion] for not having a 'representative' photo that followed the photo 'rules'...even though some others did not, and arguably she did.....but the EF rules are used to oppress, when needed; and not followed even-handedly by the powers that be over there. Favored people were allowed obscured faces, no photo or, as this, a photo of someone else, even if a cartoon character. The place is a joke, despite a few good members hanging on for reasons unknown.

That's Alfred E. Newman.
Alfred E. Neumann was featured in Verrückt, an all-but-forgotten humor magazine created by the publishers of Der Klabautermann and Die Ostwache -- no doubt appreciated by many EF regulars, and at least one of the site's owners, as being among the great laugh-filled periodicals of the early 1940s.

Oh, that might be two different persons, looking exactly the same, Alfred E. Neumann in the German issue of the MAD magazine (it was/is called MAD here as well) and Alfred E. Newman in the American/British issues. Likely there are other Doppelgaengers...
I have to look up "Der Klabautermann" and "Die Ostwache". You always learn something new on DPF.
The most relevant literature regarding what happened since September 11, 2001 is George Orwell's "1984".
