I’m just curious, but what do you think is the difference between “critical thinking” and “common sense”? Ostensibly, they both seem to mean something like effective thinking done outside the boundaries of predefined dogmas. On the other hand, “critical thinking” often appears to be Orwellian-Newspeak for “accept the dogma I am telling you”. Granted, maybe “common sense” plays the same role, but for a different audience, and the principle distinction is a class divide.
