What's something people often say that drives you crazy? personally, it really activates my almonds when people say there are no modern-day primates that can hibernate

"Immigrants collect welfare and don't pay taxes". Literally the most inaccurate, misinformed REPEATEDLY regurgitated lie I keep fucking reading daily..

If you're not a citizen there's so much extra BS to deal with and you don't qualify for shit. They pay taxes and don't collect on benefits those taxes pay for, they are a net-positive.

Also just in general there's a lot citizens just take for granted and don't think about. That's what drives me nuts about people that demonize immigrants for all sorts of ridiculous reasons.
