Oh, so you don't know what a trope means.  That explains why you aren't understanding my posts.  Perhaps I should call them cliches.  Does that make more sense now?

You think a trope is the same thing as a cliche and you're saying that I'm the one who doesn't know what it means?  That's interesting.

I wasn't the one you were talking to, but yeah, they are basically synonyms.

Here is Merriam Webster:

"Trope: a common or overused theme or device : cliche"
