One that comes to mind for me: “Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is not always true. Maybe even only half the time! Are there any phrases you tend to hear and shake your head at?

    I mean, if there wasn’t fourty years worth of context for why this is bad, I’d agree with it.

    Like, it could mean infrastructure projects or a renewed investment in education or something. But alas it honestly just means “destroy and loot America by deceiving uneducated rural whites” at this point.
