I like the idea, but really dislike the name. Makes it sound like it should follow in USA's footsteps which exactly what we don't want.

I think European Union still sounds better, it's a marriage.

I agree but I guess the name is supposed to be catchy

Hi how did you come across this petition, is it legit ? See my other remarks.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 2 points 6 hours ago

Ok, EU, we are fucking not calling it US(E).

I like the idea, but I don't think it's going to happen. People aren't ready to give up national sovereignty.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 1 points 6 hours ago

Depends on what form that takes, and how gradual.

This post would fit better into !europe@feddit.org or !europeanfederalists@lemmy.world

I just want to bring this up because this community is about discussing European products/services and we don't want the discussion to turn into nationalism/euronationalism.
