We have a saying here in Germany

"Du vermischst Kraut und Rüben!"

Which translates to: "You are mixing cabbage and turnips!"

It is used as a deprecative phrase to express discontent when debating a subject and the opposite simply brings forward an argument which has nothing to do with the subject.

A clear case here, didnt know how to express it in english.
