The context is that it was a thread where people were debating whether people ever say that both sides are the same, which devolved into a debate over whether both sides are the same in some places. I'm not sure how saying they're like Sarumon vs Sauron is explicitly saying one is worse in the third one, considering this was in response to a meme comparing them to Sarumon vs Gandalf. Aragorn in this comparison is their equivalent of a third party.

Maypull said very little in their response so, I'm sure you can add something if you try.

If it's a spot the difference style thing then the art won't be dramatically different and you still get to have the box art at least.

Here's 3 examples from just a single thread that I was a part of not too long ago (I'd have more but I don't actively save threads/comments regarding this topic so this is from a thread I could find via my replies that wasn't deleted).

People have absolutely been doing that, I see it constantly here.

As much as it would be nice if the world worked that way, that's not how the world works unfortunately.

They spoke about a particular religion because that particular religion was the one relevant to the conversation already taking place. You are reaching REALLY hard to try to claim they're being antisemitic here.

A lot of people dislike religion for reasons that are pretty understandable. I'm not anti-religion myself but I can absolutely understand why some people are because like it or not religion has hurt a lot of people because of how often it's been used to abuse and oppress others including other religious groups.

This just provides a small added challenge, I don't really see an issue . If you want an easier jigsaw they might sell them at a toy store.

Try having something to drink. I often find that a headache when I'm tired is often caused or at least made worse by dehydration.

No, sadly with the way US voting works at the moment the chances of a third party winning is microscopic, so voting for a third party is only taking votes away from the only party that stands a chance of beating the republicans. Statistically third party voters would be more likely to vote democratic than republican if they didn't have a third party option, so in reality the more people voting third party the more they're helping republicans win. It sucks but that's the reality.

That's the problem, for republicans "genocidal racist" IS a voting demographic they're trying to appeal to.
