Certainly others are going to give a more knowledgable answer than I do
Dividends are taxed at cap gains rate after owning for some period (?90 days?)
There is some amount of cap gains/qual dividends that you don't pay taxes on if that is your only income. Combine that with standard deduction and you can have fair amount of income if these are your ONLY income and not be taxed.
I did not think it was $120k but maybe
It is misleading at best or outright lie (to get views or make some inequality point I assume) to say that there are no taxes on qualified dividends.

MFJ 0-94,050 is 0% LTCG rate, plus standard deduction. OP is technically correct, if that is the only source of income, it would all be taxed at zero percent.
