When I try to discuss critical thinking skills with some of my peers and with one of my older brothers, this is dismissed as being in line with critical theory / CRT / doublethink from 1984.
There is apparently an ideological component to critical thinking. If you are supposed to analyze the world through the lens of what you consider the "one true set of ideas", being critical and "seeing both sides", or even working through the reasoning of others is seen as a violation of the highest order.
