Twitter really is the gift that never stops giving. On Saturday morning, Mark Hamill tweeted about Ajit Pai, the man largely behind the FCC vote to end Obama-era net neutrality protections. Hamill wasn't the only one to be upset about the vote.
For some reason, Ted Cruz decided to focus in on Hamill's response, writing "Luke, I know Hollywood can be confusing, but it was Vader who supported govt power over everything said & done on the Internet."
But in blunder that seems typical for the Ted Cruz Twitter account, the tweet tagged the wrong Mark Hamill account. Hamill took no mercy on the senator and quickly shot back.
"Thanks for smarm-spaining it to me @tedcruz I know politics can be confusing," tweeted Hamill, "but you'd have more credibility if you spelled my name correctly. I mean IT'S RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF YOU! Maybe you're just distracted from watching porn at the office again."
Check out the full exchange below.

.@HammillHimself Luke, I know Hollywood can be confusing, but it was Vader who supported govt power over everything said & done on the Internet. That's why giant corps (Google, Facebook, Netflix) supported the FCC power grab of net neutrality. Reject the dark side: Free the net! https://t.co/nARkMvIEYk
