Any local leader of that time who was religious would probably be
classified as a dictator by atheists of today.   The subject was
Communist dictators.  We were talking about World Communism, which did
not happen until Karl Marx wrote the Communist Manifesto and Das

government under the control of Communist powers.  All Communist
dictators under World Communism were atheists.
