      To kneel like a knight before the cross. This was hyperbole. In rhetoric, an obvious exaggeration; an extravagant statement or assertion not intended to be understood literally.

      It was used to express my frustration with the social interaction I had higher up in this comment chain, as I feel like people were unfavourably interpreting my comment, disproportionally so since it was a single word. To insinuate a need to grovel before such a simple, limited in size, comment is hyperbole.

      In actuality it was a miscommunication which happens, whatever. And I'm autistic so I read into these things too much trying to understand em.

          No worries, I've noticed I tend to interpret things online negatively at first glance too — genuinely think it's something that'd change if there was a more cooperative, inclusive attitude in society, and was conditioned into me by r e d d i t.
