First of all, because there are some things about which one can agree in thinking. The real world is like this and many formal systems (mathematics, for example) these are. They act as a kind of standard with which you can compare a thought and evaluate its plausibility relative to other thoughts.
And secondly, because although it is equally possible to think both correctly and incorrectly, mass delusions are proof of this, the number of ways to think incorrectly is several times higher than the number of ways to think correctly. After all, the wrong thought is not bound by anything, is free, and the right one is limited by the very things with which it is measured, cannot contradict them. And since the situation in which two thoughts about the same subject will contradict each other, but at the same time correspond equally accurately to it, is unlikely, the development of thought usually leads to the fact that there is only one way to think about the subject correctly. Who do we call smart? Someone who thinks correctly.
Why does it happen that smart people don't think the same way? Because very often it is not possible to assess here and now which of the two thoughts is more plausible, and the choice between them is made based on other considerations – personal preferences, field of application, and so on. In particular, for the humanities, due to the complexity of the subject, this is a completely common situation.
Smart people think according to the same correct rules and achieve mutual understanding with smart people.
Stupid people do not adhere to the rules and think-emotionally, oddly, without any logic, naively and assertively, without principles, chaotically.
My opinion is this. Smart and stupid people think the same way, because for some people we seem smart, and for others stupid, so it has always been and will always be. But a WISE person( not necessarily an old one) will be different from the previous ones. And neither the smart nor the stupid can understand his thoughts, because they think the same, and he is a dissenter for them.
Here is the answer)))
Stupid people think the same way: remember at leastPanurg's herd.
Smart people soberly and carefully separate their emotions and preferences from objective reality – which serves as a support for their mutual understanding and, often (but not always) consensus.
First of all, it is not a fact. I am generally a subjectivist and am convinced that people see the same world around them very differently.
The essence of the proverb seems to me like this: people who study a lot and know a lot have a lot of common context(for example, in a professional field). Therefore, a few words are enough for them to convey a complex idea. For example, the phrase “Pyrrhic victory” succinctly describes a certain difficult situation.
But the general context of a group of smart people can play a cruel joke and become an obstacle to communication. I can't help but refer to this video, I really like it.

Apparently, the author (of the question) means that these people have similar ideas, judgments on something. Their views are adequate to this subject, i.e. they are true.
And why is that? And because they are “smart people”. After all, behind the human mind is the mind. And this is not our <individual> mind that we usually think of. Yes, of course it exists and is definitely (even) substantial. But the most important thing is what it is based on. A is based on the < universal and objective> Mind from which it is<universal and objective> < and> derived. Similar interpretations were proposed by ancient Greek philosophers.
Therefore, the following explanation can be offered to this question: the fact that they “think alike” is due to the fact that in them (in their brain) this “universal unified” Mind is most represented.
Dear Arina Shabalina, in my unprofessional opinion, “thought” processes occur exactly the same in both smart people and fools. But the content of this process, which is not very clear even to the sages of medicine, is very individual. I think so.

Everyone thinks differently. And smart people often come to the opposite conclusions. Because in addition to the mind, a person has feelings and will, as well as the strongest external information influence. Which also retouches / hides one piece of information and inflames/ exaggerates another.
Once upon a time (long ago) I read how an American firm selects graduates of “higher education institutions” (whatever they call them). They collect all of them and give them one engineering task. In principle, almost any such problem has many solutions. And it is even possible that any of these solutions will solve the problem. However.
For example, out of 100 graduates, three (on average) offer the same solution. That's why they take them to work. 🙂
A “smart” person (to use your definition) uses objective knowledge and logic of thinking. Neither one nor the other has any options. The truth is always simple and it is always the same. There are no two truths about the same question. Newton defined the concept of truth very well. “The truth obviously doesn't allow for any further simplification. It is the cause and does not follow from anything. This is always clear. … However, only in one case. – If the truth is found. By the way, this is also always obvious.
But you can't know everything. This is just one logic of thinking. And there is a lot of specific knowledge in different areas for one person. It is unlikely that the pilot is well versed in animal husbandry.
Smart? … Or wise? 🙂
A wise man “doesn't think” about what he doesn't understand, right?
So there are far more wise people than”equally minded” people.
Although, the latter have another niche. Let's say “equally unthinking”.
?
They don't think alike. Sometimes there can be heated arguments and discussions such that splinters fly. And you and I can listen to various arguments and proofs, after which in some cases (if we ourselves have enough intelligence and knowledge) we can conclude who may have been right. There is also such a science as logic, so if a person is smart, he usually thinks logically. This may be a coincidence.
