Basically the common sense is a set of intuitions that is hold by a majority of people. These intuitions however failed again and again during the course of history.

Therefore I think we should for pragmatic reasons alone abandon the common sense in the intellectual discourse. In our everyday lives we may still use it because it is hard to abandon it completely. But it has no place in the intellectual discourse because our intuitions about the world often enough failed to be in agreement with actual reality.

Instead of the common sense we need to create a methodology that is objective and based on empiricism. Only basic logic succeeded in being right.
