My grandfather sympathized with Bolsheviks. If I said “God, it is going to rain” before 1 May or 8 March he replied “Don’t you worry. Bolsheviks are lucky and will enjoy good weather!”. My grandfather told me about oppression of Jews in old times. He said how groups of men on Palm Day used to beat Jews with willow tree branches before the revolution. He didn’t tell me anything about pogroms.
