For example, Lenin announced "All land to the peasants! All factories to the workers!". And then proceeded to nationalize every inch of land and every functioning enterprise, and to enslave both the workers and the peasants

And ironically it was the successful peasants - the kulaks - that became "class enemy #1" along with the Russian middle class and aristocracy. Can't have peasants standing up for the land they won and made fruitful! The kulak's farms were "collectivized" and the kulaks were purged.
