Like you need to be an atheist + a feminist or + a Marxist.
To each of their own, but atheism is the lack of belief in god, not making it like a cult or religion.

I agree. "Atheist" merely means "off" nothing more. We don't need to create moral lists or demands of others sharing that "off" position. Our species ability to be cruel or compassionate, to seek cooperation, or use force, is not in a label, but in our species evolution. "Atheist" is not a political party, economic view, or moral code. To me you are either a good person or you are not as an individual. I don't owe atheists blind loyalty either. I have met over the years atheists I don't agree with or like. Just like I have met theists I do like and agree with, outside the god claim.
Humans are always individuals first to me. When we do find agreement, then that agreement is topic specific not based on a general loyalty demand.
