The fact is, many atheists are indeed strong atheists (they believe there are no gods). But that doesn't mean you get to say every atheist is a strong atheist.

Indeed, strong atheism has a "burden of proof", so to speak. It requires a justification. Outrageous and badly defined claim versus no evidence is plenty justification. So as Nestor says, this little tantrum goes nowhere.
