Atheism, at the time, held a specific status as the most favored religious belief in China, enshrined in the Constitution. I can look up the exact article for you if you like.

Atheism still holds privileged status in the PRC, although no longer (that I know of: the latest constitution is a mess) constitutionally.

The actions of the cultural revolution were taken in the name of atheism, exactly as much as the actions of the crusades or the inquisition were taken in the name of Christianity.
