So for the most part this is a hypothetical?I will agree that Stalinist are close to this example, but the key difference would be motivation. Your example suggests it's done out of pure hatred for religion, while stalinists/communists did it out of blind loyalty (or fear) to Stalin and to expand political authority and obedience.

I wouldn't expect a coallition of Atheists to occur on a "medium" level like WB.
As for Stalin's motivation, that's probably the case, yes, but it's also probably the case for religious extremists as well.
