But for Star Wars legend Mark Hamill, it was not amusing in the slightest.
He called "Aren't I precious?" Pai out in an epic tweet, telling the chairman that he is "profoundly unworthy" of wielding a lightsaber, especially since the Jedi are all about fighting for the "common man." He also had questions about Pai's usage of the Star Wars theme:
Hamill, like many Americans, was probably reacting to the news late last week that the FCC had voted down party lines 3-2 in favor of repealing net neutrality, even though 83% of Americans favored keeping net neutrality in place. And Pai's smugness about it all wasn't earning him any fans.
