    One, it’s virtue signaling at its best.

    Secondly, randomly adding in the letter x to things is not ‘common sense’.

    Common sense is the ability to make practical judgments and behave in a sensible way. It’s the knowledge and experience that most people have, or should have.

    So my original point still stands. ‘Mx’ is not common sense. Knowing not to play a game of chicken with traffic, is common sense. Maybe this is why common sense isn’t so common anymore, people just appropriate words/phrases to mean whatever they want, instead of what they mean.

    This is how we’ve ended up in a world where the word literally no longer means the word literally.
