Third of a series
IN the first two parts of this series, I explained how the DDS, or "Diehard Duterte Supporters," morphed into existence after the May 2016 elections as an example of how social media platforms (i.e., Facebook) were overrun by "social media famous" nobodies. The throng who swarmed social media after 2016, however, had no sense of how important that moment was for Filipinos, mindlessly salivating over the personal gain that could potentially be had from this social media revolution.
