What do you mean by "About?" Do you mean "Can atheists stand for something?"? If so, the answer is, yes, they can. They can stand for lots and lots of things.... they can have any ideologies they like provided that those ideologies don't imply a belief in any gods.
Atheism, on the other hand, doesn't stand for anything. It is not an ideology, it is merely either absence of belief in god(s) (agnostic atheism) or positive believe that god(s) do not exist (gnostic atheism)...and Atheism is nothing more and nothing less than that.
