I do think intuitions are a necessary source of pushback against philosophical skepticism, and am in favor of a kind of spirit of incredulity in response to skepticism. People pretend they are Cartesian skeptics for 15 minutes in a conversation, or a classroom, but go right back on to being a person after the conversation is over.
But on the other hand, I think a lot of disasters in philosophy come from having a failure of imagination, mistaking it for an insight into necessity and calling that an "intuition."
So I don't know that one should have a transcendent attitude toward all intuitions, I think it depends. Lance Bush is interested in moral intuitions and generally (imo) a great philosopher with great instincts, but I think what intuitions we do or don't have about morality are important, and I wouldn't want to wave those away because anglosphere philosophers have a bad track record with intuitions leading them astray when it comes to Mary's Room or the Chinese Room (what is it with rooms).

At least credit Dennett if you're quoting him
If, through a series of unlikely butterfly effects, this nearly empty comment section turns out to be a landmark moment in the history of philosophy that shifts credit for Dennet's thought to me, an anonymous internet commenter, I'll do everything I can to correct the misunderstanding.
It's not about that. It's just intellectually honest not to present other people's ideas as your own
Except no originality was claimed, so that's out the window too. These kinds of extreme charges seem to fundamentally misunderstand the conversational norms appropriate in internet comment sections.
