I find it very ironic that atheists detest religion yet they don't mind using the hardships of religious people to pursue their anti-religion agenda.

More people have been murdered in the name of Christianity than all other mass murders combined. Atheists don't kill people. Christians with guns do.
Knowing that, I sincerely accept your heartfelt apology.

I really don't see any relevance . Atheist can be anyone that don't believe in god but taking a few and categorizing all is just illogical and stupid in any school of thought.
You find evil in religious as well as none religious so the idea is obviously irrelevant . The morality of the atheist or religious believer is the point in question and your point doesn't recognize this if I get your drift . I detest religious theism for lack of a better word but that has nothing to do with atheism for I just believe that similar or upgraded morals would do better if presented with honesty instead of what you think is honesty. History and fact vaildate what i think .reason goes way beyond blind faith in the course of moral or ethical codes . Holocausts and genocides are political decisions even if the major constituency is of religion or not so your point is so weak I can bearly see any point at all.
If you expect every religious or non religious person to represent the whole you will be sadly disappointed .

The Holocaust was driven by atheists? Hitler and the SS practiced an occultized form of Roman Catholicism. No particular religious group holds a monopoly on crimes against humanity, and none can claim complete innocence from them (barring Pastafarians, Ba'hai, and a few other small modern religions).
I'm not really sure what you're arguing, here.

Fisting,
None. There were genocides perpetrated by people who happened to be atheists, but none in the name of "atheism". Mao, Stalin and Pol Pot did their thing in the name of a radical political (NOT religious) ideology that no atheist I have ever met supports.
plenty, including THE Holocaust were seen as God's work and carried out by good religious folk.

None, strictly speaking. Mao and Stalin were killing people because of politics, not religion.

Using hardships...yeah I haven't see that done. And please, many nonbelievers/heathens/whatevers have been killed over the generations because they simply didn't agree with the believers and conform to their beliefs.
