I recently wanted to get rid of a load of KDE cruft after I installed
xfce and elected to install sddm desktop manager with it (which is xorg
and a wayland session compatible), which by default seems to come with a
lot of KDE stuff in Debian.

`aptitude purge '?and(~i ?tag(suite::kde))'`

Be sure to check the output from aptitude you before it does
anything, it will ask you to confirm package changes. YMMV but it worked
nicely for me.
