I would like to link to my great grandparents, but unfortunately, they are no loner with us and there is no internet there either.

Some other cultures still has the practice of “talking to your family” even after you turn 18.

My relatives who remember famine of 1930-x and the help of soviets were still alive when I already was an adult.

And you would fucking be crazy to call a person born in 1920-s in Russia a product of a western state department.

I did not say you are a product of western state depts. I was not speaking literally. Re-read the comment. Western state depts want you to be a reactionary. They didn’t invent the concept of being one. Bringing up your family doesn’t change any of that.
