I can only TRY to explain it. It's gibberish disguised as fancy talk. Did you read it?
"What's weird is that people who say things like this often don't seem to grasp that these same people are not responsible for justifying their decisions..."

Now read it again.

Which "same people"? S_O is asserting that the person who said "everyone is responsible for their own decisions" isn't "responsible for justifying their decisions".
I assume that's not what he meant, but it sure is what he said.
So it was quite fair to say that "This post is nonsensical."


Let's look at what S_O was TRYING to say. Based on his historical bent I think I can dumb it down for us (but I sure can't make it reasonable). Read it one more time:
"What's weird is that people who say things like this often don't seem to grasp that these same people are not responsible for justifying their decisions nor are they obligated to discuss their decisions with any gadfly who feels they possess some fanciful privilege."

He's saying that the kind of person who would say that "everyone is responsible for their own decisions" isn't entitled to ask the people he might say that to how they came to those decisions. But he is so entitled. Board membership, paid or unpaid, entitles us all to ask such questions so it's hardly a "fanciful privilege".

Those to whom such questions are asked are also entitled not to answer them ("nor are they obligated to discuss their decisions"...being half right's a good thing!).
But it's good to know that there's a question cop at the ready should one be needed.

No matter what it is or who commenced it, I'm against it!
