It sounds like it's a trend when you agree with it and a generalization when you don't. I'm sure not all people are like the people I talked about but enough are that I said what I did.

It sounds like you want to ignore trends and assume everything is a generalization, or vice versa. You just want to defend yourself, it's ok.

"Not all people are like the people I talked about, but enough are that I said what I did."
