Depending on the form I'm guessing. But in the early days of the soviet union. Most of the farm owners (rich people back then) were shipped out to siberia. Their farms converted to cooperatives. Wouldn't exactly call it nothing.
Also I doubt that people after a successful revolution will keep themselves from lynching the capitalist class :D
Events from over a hundred years ago have exceedingly limited relevance to the crises of the present day.
Also, I would question the robustness of your claim as you have framed it. Much of the atrocities following the Russian Revolution occurred within the Civil War, which entailed invasions from foreign powers, and in which both sides were perpetrators and complacent in such activity.
People who ignore history are prone to repeat it, or how the saying goes. I do wish for a more social future, where sin of greed is not rewarded, although I haven't actually heard about a revolution/change of structure, where heads did not roll of the ruling class.
There is something magical about dehumanization of certain people, to force violence upon them and not allowing to execute the final steps of lynching. I don't think it can be done.

I'm not a historian, but there is a part of history from my country, that is still told by the older folk. Soviet deportations to Siberia. It occured after the civil war. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_deportations_from_Lithuania
