Mao, Pol Pot, Stalin, Lenin, Idi Amin murdered millions not in the name of religion.
Not many leftists think Mao and Stalin murdered millions.
Leftists sometimes recall how religion has hindered the progress of science and of economic development in many countries, and they recall the religious wars which have wracked Europe and the Middle East to argue that religion is an insufficient answer to the problems of modernity. But so far as I know they don't count bodies and then claim their side has fewer and is therefore better. That is the stuff of US social media.
