Missouri Republican Senator Josh Hawley is being mocked on social media after he promoted his new book railing against “big tech” in the most awkward way possible: via big tech.
Hawlyis selling a book on Amazon.com that is critical of Amazon, titled “The Tyranny of Big Tech.”
Hawley, one of the ringleaders of the Jan. 6 attempt in Congress to overturn the election results based on lies and conspiracy theories, is selling a book on Amazon.com that is critical of Amazon, titled “The Tyranny of Big Tech.”
He complained on Tuesday about a vague conspiracy against his anti-tech book by “corporate media and the woke mob.” Just one problem: He made that gripe on Twitter… via an iPhone… with a link promoting the book on Amazon.com.
Hawley’s role in the January 6 insurrection cost him donors as well as his initial book deal, although he quickly found a new publisher. He has since complained ceaselessly about being censored and has done so unironically via numerous national TV appearances, a front-page editorial in The New York Post and, presumably, in his forthcoming book.
Hawley’s latest tweet ― using big tech to complain about big tech while promoting his book on big tech for sale via big tech ― caused his name to trend on Twitter as critics called him out for one of his most clueless comments yet:
The corporate media and the woke mob don’t want you to read this book. They tried to cancel it. They failed. One week until publication – order here https://t.co/Qw1Bovt4Xh

To market his book, Josh Hawley used an iPhone, Twitter and Amazon. More censorSHOP than censorship. https://t.co/BnaHMtftL8

Hawley is a lifelong domestic terrorist, even supporting the bloody terror attack on OKC on the Murrah Building. He wrote a love letter to Timothy McVeigh, and he supports the terror attack on 1/6. He even did a terrorist fist jab for them, and voted to overturn the election.

This is actually impressive. The Tyranny of Big Tech, purchasable on Amazon, advertised on Twitter, tweeted from an Apple iPhone. https://t.co/SuSCIEAADn

Old enough to remember when @HawleyMO orchestrated a violent insurrection to cancel all of US.

Real quick– what's the website you're using to profit from on your book again? Just that link there– what website might that be?

Remember that the United States Constitution says that "no Person (@HawleyMO) shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress" who "shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against" the Constitution, "or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof." (14th Amendment)
