I don’t know how to do this without people saying I’m putting words in their mouths. I don’t see the chain of logic that led from point A to point B, so I say what I mean in the hopes that I’ll clarify the situation. Then they take that to mean I think I’m contradicting something they didn’t actually say, and they didn’t mean that, they meant something else entirely! Only they don’t actually specify what that something else entirely WAS, so I still don’t know what they meant. Then I try to further lay out what I meant, and they still think I’m contradicting some DIFFERENT thing they didn’t actually say. And this keeps happening over and over, and I never find out what they actually meant!
