I grew up in a household where my father since his college days was pretty much influenced by communism , due to which the time I was growing up , I had a lot of marxist , leninist literature at home , and there were few ussr imported books about communist ideologies ! Few other of my family members are quite communist as well ! So anyone else has similar background ?

    honestly kristina went through so much in her life that its kinda mind boggling. our family had our whole village occupied by the german military at least 3 times in her life time, including during her formative years as a kid. had many men in our family get ruthlessly conscripted into austrian and prussian militaries against their will and dying in some far off place. its no wonder she was ready to kill some germans

        one thing i remember reading is she had like 3 brothers that died underaged in austrian coal mines, had 12 siblings total. just a wild and rough life. glad she got to see an independent socialist czechoslovakia before she passed at a grand old age.
