Your book performing well on Amazon kinda disproves its cakebrained thesis, doesn’t it.

Hawley's thesis is that Big Tech is superimposing on its users fealty to progressivism in an ominously heavy-handed way. But his own success on Big Tech performatively undermines that argument.
What's funny about this grift is the glaring internal contradiction at its core.
Hawley's massive reach and book sales suggest that, even if he's right, Big Tech appears to be so incompetent that they're not worth worrying about. In which case, don't bother reading his book.

Big Tech appears to be really bad at throttling Hawley's speech. His tweets and books enjoy fantastic prominence and reach . . . which kinda sorta suggests Big Tech's "tyranny" is one that is egregiously mismanaged and incompetently self-undermining. So chuck Hawley's book, then!
