Apologies if this doesn’t meet the requirements of this sub, but I think I have a relevant perspective as an advocate for 20+ years, employment related, dealing with many matters concerning social barriers, exclusion and justice.
Absolutely it is used to exclude outsiders, and in particular, people struggling with pressures related to addiction, abuse and mental health.
It is a misnomer, a lie. There is no common sense: Common people do uncommon things when uncommon things become common.
This perspective helped guide me often in my work and global perspectives as it helps rationalize uncomfortable behaviour by those needing justice.
Furthermore, it’s lost legitimacy since becoming a politically loaded phrase. With everything going on in the US, I’m often reminded of the successful 90’s Ontario campaign “The Common Sense Revolution”, which was anything but.

My only reference is a Propagandhi song title.
