She says you could "almost" say she was born into it. I take that as meaning that her circumstances meant she was tailormade for the White Fang. One sticking point on her family circumstances for me is the time the Faunus War occurred. Mind you, we are talking about teenagers so when Oobleck talked of it feeling like "ancient history" to them the time need not be the distant past. It could have happened in their early childhoods or just a few years before they were born and still seem like "ancient history" to them. That gives us possibilities such as Blake being born in a war-torn area, possibly a refugee camp, or even her being a war orphan if it happened early in her childhood. Any of these would jive with her statement about effectively being born into the White Fang and make her very early activism seem logical without the need to make her some legacy member of the group.
