Its all about the easing process of defanging them. Like gently but firmly removing the reins of power and helping the pesky ones go quietly into this sad night

They and everyone related to them that could be found were hunted down and killed, followed by a civil war and 69 years of iron fisted rule by a new elite, posing as communists, after which those elites who saw the imminent collapse pivoted to being oligarchs.

Nature abhors a vacuum.
