      so you agree that a group can do bad things, or even be on the whole bad by a very wide margin, but still do something good worthy of praise?

          If isis starts attacking israel, that does not mean you need to support isis…

          it was a response to this, which in the context of the original post, has a sentiment that directly contradicts what you just agreed with

            Acknowledging that a terrible organization has done something good doesn’t mean I support them.

              the meme never mentions supporting houthis, it says praising them

              acknowledging somebody has done something good is praising them

              hence “If isis starts attacking israel, that does not mean you need to support isis…” is a bad response
