Its a mistake we (humans) make all the time. If someone discusses subject (A) to the least bit.... then we apply opinion B (ours) to fill in the blanks. Then we go a step further and use absolute language, labels and such to sunscribe a stranger to an entire set of values. a huge fallacy of thinking, which extends to such high levels, that even the most powerful people in the land have to walk a tightrope of expressed context, lest they be pigeonholed by the audience.
