Alexandra Kollontai

Alexandra Kollontai was a Russian Communist who became Europe’s first female government minister in 1919. She came from a wealthy family, one that was well ensconced in the military bureaucratic complex. Her father was a general. It was only natural that she should support the anti working class bureaucratic revolution of October 1917.
She was brought up with servants. Ordering about the lower orders was something she did throughout her life.
A Bolshevik, she became People’s Commissar for Social Welfare. She was especially dedicated to transforming the lives of the women of the menial classes.
They were to be regimented into factories, and their children looked after in state nurseries.
Thus they would be liberated from the bonds of family and enslaved by the hierarchy.
It was all for their own good, of course.
Like our modern Progressives she believed in ‘free love’.
“Sexuality is an instinct as natural as hunger or thirst.”
Or perhaps it is just a release of tension, a discharge, like defecation. 
Like modern Progressives she wanted the family to wither away, and for everybody to work for, and to be dependent on the state.
The education of children was to be the responsibility of the state, their day to day care would be the job of the menial parents (if they were shown to be suitable).
Alexandra Kollontai, like her modern successors, was an evil woman working for an evil cause
