Boycott US

Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to get rid of citizen's united and implement independent district drawing and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

why rename it? it's a North Atlantic Treaty Organisation with or without the US
The same reason IG Farben was renamed BASF after the war: there was nothing wrong with the name and it was the same company core (minus a few bits) but IG Farben was a bit too associated with Zyklon B.
NATO is intimately associated with the US for historical reasons. A new name would signal a willingness to put down the historical baggage and start afresh.
Except the US is in NATO, so there's no NATO without the US unless they leave.
atp I'm already assuming they'll leave
Not if Trump (or whoever is really pulling the strings) think that the US can do more damage to NATO as a part of it instead of leaving it.
