Bakit Nahihiya Silang Tawaging DDS

The question isn't just "Is it embarrassing to be a DDS?" anymore.?

It's morphed into a full-blown existential crisis, a philosophical conundrum that has gripped the nation: If it looks like a DDS, swims like a DDS, and quacks like a DDS, but insists it's a swan, are we all collectively hallucinating a duck?

The answer, my friends, is a resounding "No, you're not crazy. It's a duck."

We've entered a bizarre era of political denial, where prominent figures like Malou Tiquia, Rowena Guanzon, Mayor Magalong, and Bong Suntay (yes, him again!) are vehemently denying their DDS status, despite exhibiting all the telltale signs.

It's like watching a magician saw himself in half and then claiming he's perfectly fine.

We see the trick, but they insist it's not happening.
It's the political equivalent of that old joke: "Who are you going to believe, me or your own eyes?"

In this case, the eyes are screaming "DUCK!" while the mouth is chirping "SWAN!"

The problem, of course, is that actions speak louder than words.

You can claim you're not a DDS all you want, but if you're spending your days defending controversial policies, attacking critics with the ferocity of a rabid chihuahua, and generally behaving like a caricature of a DDS, well, people are going to draw their own conclusions.

The added layer of absurdity comes from the fact that these individuals are often the same ones who were so vocal and proud of their DDS affiliations in the past.

It's like a reformed smoker lecturing everyone on the dangers of nicotine while still sneaking puffs in the bathroom.

The hypocrisy is palpable.

And then there's the added dig: "Eh kung hanggang ngayon hindi ninyo alam ang kasarian ninyo, do you expect us na maniwala kami sa mga opinyon ninyo?

Lalo na yung mga topics na compassionate kayo?" Ouch.

That's a low blow, even for satire.

It's basically saying, "If you can't even figure out your own identity, how can we trust your opinions, especially on topics that require empathy?
"
It's a brutal, albeit satirical, commentary on the perceived lack of self-awareness and credibility of these individuals.

The truth is, the DDS label has become so toxic that even those who once embraced it are now running for the hills.

It's like a brand that has been so thoroughly tarnished that no amount of rebranding can salvage it.

So, what's the solution? Should we force these individuals to wear DDS badges?

Should we subject them to a rigorous DDS litmus test? Of course not.

The answer is simple: let their actions speak for themselves.

If it looks like a DDS, swims like a DDS, and quacks like a DDS, then it's probably a DDS.

And no amount of denial will change that.

The Great DDS Duck Hunt is on, and the ducks are running scared.

But as any seasoned hunter knows, ducks can't hide forever.

Eventually, they'll have to come out of the water and face the music.

Or, in this case, the quacking.
