bracket/lump together with; tar with the same brush as
В този контекст аз лично бих употребил един от следващите варианти:
"do not bracket/lump us together with your other..."
"do not tar us with the same brush as your other..."
"Tar someone with the same brush" особено подчертава това, че допълнението на глагола "tar" сравнява се с нещо негативно. Вижте примерите и дефинициите по-долу.
It does not help analysis of the disease if medieval anti-Jewish religious persecution is **lumped together** with 19th-century economic and social exclusion, or if the very different Jewish experience in Christian Europe and the Muslim east is not acknowledged.

"Professor Lipstadt went so far as to **lump together and tar with the same brush** those whom she described as "deniers" and all those who participated in the German Historikerstreit because of their honestly expressed views."

bracket
3. To classify or group together.

Lump together
v. t. 1. To combine (various items) and treat them as a unit.
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Lump together
tar someone with the same brush
to believe wrongly that someone or something has the same bad qualities as someone or something that is similar. "I admit that some football supporters do cause trouble but it's not fair that we're all being tarred with the same brush."

Струва ми се, че тук не е задължително да се търси еквивалентът на идиоматичния израз; по-скоро трябва да се изрази правилно отношението - за което не е непременно необходим такъв израз.
"... so we would consider it inappropriate to be treated as your other tenants."
Вместо inappropriate може да е unjust, unjustified, unacceptable (etc) - в зависимост от това как искате да звучи.
