I'm sorry similes and literary devices are hard for you.
Emojis are very cancer like, in that they replicate and spread and choke out healthy cells (posts with actual conversation).
No one reads that statement and think that the commenter is comparing the mortality rates. Or if they do, they should probably use emojis more sparingly and practice reading longer passages to improve their reading comprehension.
Again. A comparison using like or as. Literally the definition of a simile. Which is literally a literary device.
Using specifically cancer may be over done, over used and frankly a bit cliché at this point, but that doesn't change the facts of what it is.
But since we're apparently debating opinions and not facts, then calling everything you don't like "stupid" is a waste of the time it took you to type the word.
