That was my immediate takeaway, too! Everyone else is giving real answers and I'm like r/holup

No, razors go dull because the hairs will wear down the sharp edge, making it more blunt. Most razors use stainless steel, so if they're rusting on you (rust will be visible), then you're doing something wrong (e.g. using the same disposable blade for too long, not properly drying, etc.)
You should never, ever shave with a rusty blade.
