You point to Stalin as if he was the only Communist that ever lived. Communism did and still promotes materialistic evolution. Stalin's attack on Darwinism was the passing fancy of an insane man who killed not just Darwinians, but religious people. A man who killed not only those of other nationalities, but his own Georgian people. A man who killed not only those opposing Communism, but also his own Communist friends who fought side by side with him in establishing that atheistic doctrine on his nation.
After I mentioned that Stalin (who used to be a big creationoid poster-boy) was opposed to Darwin's teachings, a certain blue-posting creationoid said this:

Yet the creationoids continued to bring up Hitler, as if his crimes actually proved something about evolution. Now, however, they use the exact rebuttal we used, only this time they use it for Stalin. Intellectual dishonesty?

We should also mention that Hitler -- also a favorite poster-boy of the creationoids, is no longer mentioned much, now that he's been exposed as a creationist.
