Not only is it satisfying, but this kind of revenge is better than killing them, because in doing so you're also making the world a better place. So after the revolution, grab the defeated powerless enemy by the arm and take him not to the guillotine, but take him to his home that the revolution has provided for him, inside the community of people that have completely opposite morals and goals of mutual aid and solidarity, where he'll be constantly reminded of his loss until the end of his extremely comfortable life because the revolution would have improved everyone's life, and he'll realize that the reactionism he dedicated his life to was inferior all along, and he'll either go mad and become a hermit and ghost of bourgeois society, or he'll accept the truth and join everyone else in peace and harmony.
