Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

Hello all, I'm listening to s3 of the Blowback Podcast and I ran into a great quote from a 6th company 357th regiment red army soldier in a message to his commander, it goes "I cannot wait any longer. I am unable to endure the new hatred piled on old. My mother was hounded by the landlord, my father worked as a farm laborer for the landlord until his death, I pastored the landlord's pigs since I was twelve, I had been whipped and abused until I was 16 when I was drafted for military service. Isn't it the American devils who supported Chiang Kai-Shek so that we, the working people, lived in misery and suffered disasters? After our liberation, can we watch the Korean people suffer the same fate without lending them a hand? The poor all over the world belong to one family. I am requesting to go to the Korean Front and kill American devils." The quote is relayed at episode 7 "Mao's Poem" around 22:10 and it goes so fucking hard I really want to know if its possible to find online or in print? I would just love to find a link to the quote itself if possible thanks comrades :)
