Beyond his showbiz career, Sweet is widely known as an outspoken LGBTQ+ advocate, often using his platform to promote acceptance, inclusion, and gender equality in the country.
Previously, Sweet raised concerns over alleged troll farm activity after noticing repetitive comments flooding Facebook posts about him. On X on Monday, May 18, the comedian-director said several accounts appeared to be posting identical messages across his posts. He also noted that some profiles looked suspicious, claiming they seemed to be interacting with themselves using different accounts. His observations sparked online discussions about possible coordinated trolling and fake engagement on social media platforms.
In an earlier report by KAMI, John stirred online discussion after posting a provocative remark about DDS. The comedian-director claimed that a former partner of his underwent a noticeable change after becoming associated with the group. The post quickly split netizens, with some expressing support while others pushed back strongly against his statement. Lapus did not name the ex-partner mentioned in his viral post.
