Let me explain "out of context" one more time.


OK, here's how it works. If you claim that you've been quoted "out of context," what that means is that you have the right to go back and add that missing context to what was already disclosed, in order to show that that additional context changes the fundamental meaning.

It does not mean that you get to go back and completely redefine what was originally said. Do we finally understand one another?
