See, this I actually know about. As far as I know, Stalin was just an atheist who did bad things, in which case, whatever. I happen to know that the Cultural Revolution was an action instigated by an official Atheist government (it's in their constitution, natch) in order to, among other things, destroy elements of their society that were not atheist.
The perpetrators of the Cultural Revolution were (by and large) raised atheist, and acted under a banner of "destroying the old society, raising up the new society."
To answer the question, I'm just grouchy. And displeased with moral superiority arguments.
