I am afraid you speak out of hate and ignorance. First of all
Aguda and Satmar have nothing to do with each other. Secondly
Jewish names is a trdemark of jews for thousands of years
(shelo shinu es shimum) and that is one of our merits to
be saved from Egypt. Third of all they only ask them to 
assure us of their judaism and they do not discriminate 
against them at all. In fact Orthodox Jews have given 
graciously to help the falashas.

Now as far as the zorros if you are ashamed of your old fashioned
looking brothers maybe you are the racist. Are only Kippa Srugahs
acceptable for a head cover. Were the jews of the last hundred 
generations including all the greatest men who ever lived, srugies.
Why can't you accept them as they are (even if you think they are
wrong) ?? Do you want to stoop down to their level??? You are doing
exactly what you claim they are doing.
