Not too long after the "Russian Social-Democratic Labour Party" or the Bolsheviks took over Russia, they held elections. They lost and decided to do away with elections.

If you want a fine example of what an anti-Christ government looks like, The Soviet Union is a fine example from modern history.

Is it any suprise that the most vocal socialists are also very atheistic? It isn't,  because socialism and militant atheism are inseparable.

Bernie Sanders and the Bolsheviks have nothing in common.  One took power by force then kept it by force. The other is gaining power via the support of the people and democracy.

This doesn't even make sense. The US has freedom of religion. No government policies should ever be dictated by religion. So being "anti-Christ" is nonsense on the face of it.

How exactly is that? What makes socialism and Atheism linked?

Socialists always try to win through election until they find that it doesn't work. As soon as the opportunity arises, they seize power.

Socialism is a religion, and it is one that is intolerant towards the existence of others.

Because socialism is a materialistic religion. All other religions are seen as tools of the oppressors to pacify the oppressed.

Please note there are no socialists running. So your ridiculous generalization is both inaccurate as well as irrelevant. 

Socialism is a religion, and it is one that is intolerant towards the existence of others. 
1) there are no socialists running
2) socialism is definitely not a religion. It is an economic system. That is like saying capitalism is a religion. 

Because socialism is a materialistic religion. 
socialism is not a religion in any sense. 

All other religions are seen as tools of the oppressors to pacify the oppressed.
no. Many religions do not have the top down approach that some do. Catholicism, for example, is very centralized and has often been used as a tool of oppression. Kings and despots all over the world ruled because "god willed it".

The Orthodox Church has bishops, priests, and deacons.

It's in a great way hierarchical.
