In the USSR it was kind of mixed. If you were at all associated with the old regime you were fucked but tbh a lot of them weren't super sympathetic anyway.
In China, lol. They fucking murdered everyone who knew anything and then suffered horribly for it. Of course, even then they might have been somewhat okay except Mao thought he knew better so they got the Great Leap Forward and stuff like the Four Pests campaign.
