Not quite true. The arch Anti-Darwinist, Lysenko, did call for the execution of Darwinists. A few were executed which did contribute the mass starvations.

Shows what an anti-science mentality can do. Oh, to be totally fair about it, there is one potential tyrant who has had biology training. The current dictator of Syria is a physician. Of course, he never planned to go into the family business. If he turns out to be no different from the other middle-east tyrants, I guess Darwin will get the blame for his misdeeds.
