Sometimes they begin with the Sunday people.

The Bolsheviks first targeted Russian Orthodox clergy, and only later focused on other religions.

The Jacobins only targeted Catholic clergy. They didn't focus on Protestants and actually emancipated the Jews.

Muslims of Russia…all you whose mosques and prayer houses have been destroyed, whose beliefs and customs have been trampled upon by the tsars and oppressors of Russia: your beliefs and practices, your national and cultural institutions are forever free and inviolate. Know that your rights, like those of all the peoples of Russia, are under the mighty protection of the revolution…

-Soviet Decree 24 November 1917
