Yeah I actually only know about this because I used to work with a guy who was a convert to Russian Orthodoxy. He had a book with a picture of the Romanovs on it, which I thought was weird. At the time I wore my politics on my sleeve a bit more so when I pointed it out he was like "must be awkward for you considering you're a bit of a socialist".

Yeah it was awkward...
