I hope you're not talking to me! I don't have an opinion on that matter. All I know is one thing. I have no belief on God.
What does that make me again, I forget? eerrrrmmmm!!!
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

Because he was creating religion of himself as God and religion is not atheism.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I think you mean to ask, why did the -soviet apparatus- copy the religious. Because it works hella good at getting people to goose step over their fellow man.

Do you understand?
That is what you're saying it is. That's your own personal definition. Why is your explanation or definition "the one", beyond yourself. Do you understand?
You could say you're superman because you can do dishes really fast. In your head, that would be who you are. Has nothing to do with everybody else or even reality.

The reason Soviet style tyranny (not Atheism ) looked so much like religion is because Religion is an excellent system for tyranny so why wouldn't they copy it .

No. That's not what I meant to ask. No sense in blaming "the religious" when it was atheist extremists.

No. That's not what I meant to ask. No sense in blaming "the religious" when it was atheist extremists. No such thing as an atheist extremist and I am blaming the Soviet extremists because they copied religion to carry out the acts the validation however was based on religious mimicry because it was perfect to justify their actions
