Che is dead, long live Conchita: a new rebel icon

Che_Conchita_Old_New_Rebel.jpg

In addition to offering 51 gender options ( LINK ) to its users, Facebook is also changing its male, female, and group icons in order to bring more fairness and equality among the 51 aforementioned genders. Thus, instead of the female appearing behind the male's shoulder, she is now in front of the male, which makes hers a more equal gender.

The female's new hairdo makes her look less like Darth Vader, and the group icon now features a third, metrosexual-haired silhouette that can be one of the remaining 48 genders. The Washington Post happily reports (LINK) this revolutionary development as an important step towards eliminating cultural biases that have contributed to gender inequality.

Shouldn't the new, more progressive generation also have a new, more progressive icon - a rebel who truly challenges the status quo?

Our research has led us to an ideal candidate. Meet Conchita Wurst (LINK) the Austrian Drag Queen of Eurovision ( LINK ), the new true face of non-conformity!

Please update your T-shirts, emoticons, and social media avatars. We know Che would comply!

Who is Conchita Wurst?

Conchita Wurst (also mononymously known as Conchita) is an Austrian pop recording artist and drag queen portrayed by Thomas "Tom" Neuwirth (born 6 November 1988). Wurst came to international attention for winning the Eurovision Song Contest 2014 as Austria's entrant with the song "Rise Like a Phoenix".

Openly gay, Neuwirth uses masculine pronouns when referring to himself but feminine pronouns to describe Wurst.[1][2] Following her coronation in Eurovision, international media dubbed Conchita as the "Queen of Austria".[3][4][5][6]

We are finally people who aren't defined by what lurks in our underwear.

Only the shadow knows what evil lurks in our underwear!

Equality is here and if you don't think so you are a genderlessphobe and bigot.

It is fun to accuse people of being bigots! (Although now-a-days the more politically correct term is "racist").

P.S. Sorry I missed you before but I had too many windows open and my sound turned off).

Promoting one gender over another will not be tolerated. Gender no longer exists. Feminism is now a form of bigotry. Transgender is now the New Black!

No one will take my Cisgender Privilege away!

And no one will take my Kodachrome away!

I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away.

(And everything looks worse in black and white . . . )

LYRICS: When I think back
On all the crap I learned in high school
It's a wonder
I can think at all
And though my lack of education
Hasn't hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall
Kodachrome
You give us those nice bright colors
You give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah!
I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
If you took all the girls I knew
When I was single
And brought them all together for one night
I know they'd never match
My sweet imagination
And everything looks worse in black and white
Kodachrome
You give us those nice bright colors
You give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah!
I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome (away)
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome (away)
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome
(Leave your boy so far from home)
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome (away)

The Newstalkers ate my DogFort video!

I found it!

What a relief. 

Truly one of the best pieces of avant-garde cinema ever cinemagraphed!

DogFort, 2008, ... chaaaange had come, but at a price. The shift in government had let a top secret military operation spill out in front of the watching public.
An elite group of animals dedicated to defending stuff, like couch forts was set up to protect Democracy from the threat of other animals intent on taking over stuff, ...like couch forts. With DogFort now publicly guarding the free world from terrorism, world leaders can sleep peacefully.
