There's nothing worse than being mistaken for someone you really, really don't like.
Stephen King knows this better than most.
The famed horror author shares a name with Rep. Steve King, the Republican Congressman from Iowa. That's the same guy who recently made headlines when he questioned whether the human race would still exist if rape and incest had never happened. Yep, really.
On Wednesday night, StephenKing posted a pretty simple statement on Twitter: "Let's get 1 thing straight, I'm not THAT Steve King."

King's son, the author Joe Hill, shared a similar, pretty relatable sentiment.

This isn't the first time Steve King (the politician) has caused controversy.
SEE ALSO: Stephen King mocks Donald Trump's worldview with a rather blunt theoryHe's previously been accused of racism, anti-semitism, and he was described in 2018 by the Washington Postas "the U.S. Congressman most openly affiliated with White Nationalism".
This isn't the first time Stephen King's tried to distance himself from the guy, either.

Maybe 2020 will be the year...
