I think you've extrapolated; I think that attributes to me some ideas
that I do not agree with.  I can't be sure, because can't tell clearly
what ideas it does attribute to me.

I can't even tell which sort of attitude you are attributing to us,
only that it is one that you disapprove of.

If you would like to explain to me what you attributed to me,
I would like to understand.
