The page gets revived after 3 years

The last post before this one was dated June 12, 2016 which clearly meant that the admins abandoned ship a long time ago. Since March, they were brought back from social media death when they got notifications that their innocent page was being reported. You see, the confession page shares an infamous acronym with supporters of President Rodrigo Duterte called the DDS or ‘Diehard Duterte Supporters.’

It turns out pro-Duterte supporters and trolls mistook their Facebook page for another one of the same name. The twin ‘DDS Confessions’ (page now unavailable) was run by anti-Duterte supporters.

 

Two months later, the admin has had ENOUGH

This outburst immediately put the page under a spotlight and despite the admins clarifying that it wasn’t a political page, it was destined to become one due to its name. And it couldn’t escape its fate.

“For the love of whatever you guys worship – Please stop,” posted the dude behind the account (we’re assuming it’s a guy). It only gets funnier from here.

 

Might not be a good idea

The people behind DDS Confessions then decided it would be good to interact with its newfound fans which are both pro- and anti-Duterte. Comments flooded the posts mostly from Filipinos apologizing for getting the page caught between a social media war.

 

India branch???

We gotta give it to the admin, his replies are on point.

 

Props to the guy for doing the research

Despite saying early on that the page isn’t a political one, the admin went ahead and researched about the famed Philippine president he kept hearing about. His research has led him to gruesome facts and convinced him of one thing: he has to use his growing platform as a voice. Of course, we’d like to think that’s at least what went through his head.

Some people are not convinced. Like Vin Perez here:

 

Clearly, one long post wasn’t enough, here’s another

And here we have a famous quote that will stick with us for a while: “If an anonymous Indian guy sitting thousands of miles away can influence people into voting against your president then you have bigger problems.”

Of course, if you have opinions these days, you pay the price of harassment, in this case trolls not only reported the page but also sent the administrators death threats.

 

Alumni are doubting

Real DDS supporters (DDS meaning the Indian school) are just as confused as their Facebook page.

 

But it looks like the roller coaster ride has come to an end

Like a moth drawn to a flame, trolls are probably heeding the call to mass report this innocent page. It had its fun, may it live long to tell its hilarious tale.
