Only the Haitian example can readily be classified as lumpen (re: Black Hammer, this is just classic trot behavior) and violent state capture is not revolutionary in any Marxist/Hegelian sense of the word. These might be forces driving events but they're not driving history, rather they're forces reacting to and capitalizing on drastic structure changes that have occurred in global political economy over the last half century.
