"Common sense" is just an excuse for people not to think about the reasons for what they think and not to explain their position. They just say "it's common sense" and somehow we're supposed to accept that without question like it's some kind of divine ordinance and nobody has to bother with explanations or definitions? That's BS. "Common sense" is just an excuse for stupid, lazy people to continue being stupid and lazy.
Common sense? No such thing.

That quote from Einstein was more correct than you. You are right in that MANY stupid people try to use the term "Common Sense" to explain stupidity. But they are too stupid to know better.
It makes me very angry when people don't bother to explain what they want -- with the assumption that others are automatically supposed to know. They just use it as an excuse to claim that somehow I am the stupid one -- and then people turn around and claim that we don't have "theory of mind" Bunch of idiots, really.
