I wasn't being asked to vote for the Houthi though was I? They aren't being directly funded by my taxes like the US government and by association Israel.
They're just acting in opposition to our terrorist settlers, my support of their opposition doesn't extend to every action they take, quoting you:
Supporting enemies of the US and Israel is following the same principles as supporting the enemies of Nazi Germany without necessarily approving of everything they do.
"It's okay to lick boots as long as I don't vote for them!"
Me, personally, I might find expressing moral support for genocide and the murder of LGBT folk more repulsive than casting a vote for the lesser of two evils, but I guess I'm not 'pure' enough to understand that voting is a love letter, while love letters are... just good praxis...?
The whole problem with this though is, as I pointed out, you're claiming a principled stand against lesser evilism and common foes in one case, while supporting it in another case - a case which you have much less reason to support, and much less influence. One might be tempted to think you actually have no principles, and are operating purely on some weird internet circlejerk tribalism like most campists.
You are a campist who has chosen camp 1.
