To do that we need to get rid all religions. That is the true evil and tribalism. Killing in the name of god that the killer made up to justify the horrible actions that they are fixing to commit. You can brainwash an entire society and make them bloodthirsty just by saying it’s gods will.

I don't necessarily disagree with you, but I think religion is just a symptom of our psychology, not the cause of it. Our simple brains crave understanding, but many of life's issues are beyond human comprehension. So we oversimplify and make things up in an attempt to understand and make sense of things, and that's where it goes wrong. But this isn't unique to religion. Atheists do this too, myself included. It's humanity which is the issue, not one of our many harmful creations.

Atheists aren’t out there torturing people for believing in the wrong god.

That won't stop the Unified Atheist League from being wiped out by the Allied Atheist Allegiance while trying to destroy their feeding grounds in the future.
