You have successfully missed my point, and apparently your own???

I am not saying strong passwords are protecting you from phishing. I never did.

The meme is saying reusing the password "ruins" a lot of the security benefits of a strong password. And it does. Like you agree.

So for you, reusing passwords... That is what I am taking about, as you expressed the reusing passwords is fine because it has to be cracked and with strong password that is difficult. So I was criticizing your statement. I don't know how you manage to understand anything else from it honestly. And yes!!! Reusing passwords makes phishing attacks easier and more successful.
