What are some examples of 'common sense' which are nonsense? (lemmy.ml)

Wikipedia defines common sense as "knowledge, judgement, and taste which is more or less universal and which is held more or less without reflection or argument"

Try to avoid using this topic to express niche or unpopular opinions (they're a dime a dozen) but instead consider provable intuitive facts.

Nuance is boring, voting and/or complaining is easy.

I mean, people are right about slimy politicians too, but they never seem to consider that it's them that keeps electing those people.
