NOT EXACTLY... gray rock is just a reminder to ignore the negative commenters.
The gray rock method: is a tactic to deal with conflict and abusive, manipulative behavior.
The idea is abusive people enjoy getting reactions from their victims. This approach of Gray-rocking leads us to just skim, without response, ignoring “foolish” comments or memes which refuses a reward for negative behavior.
This system will calm antagonistic ‘detractors, dis-tractors, comments and memes. The intention for the ‘image’ of a gray rock is simply a reminder to BE KIND rather than to RESPOND IN KIND.
Ultimately, peace and kindness can be achieved on FR threads.

Your anthropomorphism of the rock does feature an inanimate object with a human-like face. However, you miss the point to avoid the approach of Gray-rocking.
The gray rock is just a reminder to ignore the negative commenters as a tactic to deal with conflict and abusive, manipulative behavior.
The pure intention for the ‘image’ of a gray rock is simply a reminder to BE KIND rather than to RESPOND IN KIND.
