A Parkland school shooting survivor is declaring a pillow fight against the My Pillow guy.

Gun control activist David Hogg announced on Twitter he’s starting a rival pillow company to take on My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell.

Hogg said he will serve as an adviser to tech entrepreneur William LeGate.

He said they’re going to prove progressives can make a better pillow.

The company plans to hire veterans, convicts who have paid their debt to society, and My Pillow employees if they run My Pillow out of business, Hogg said.

He’s taking name suggestions on Twitter. One of them is “Our Pillow.”

Axios reported Lindell told the news outlet in a text Thursday: “Good for them … nothing wrong with competition that does not infringe on someone’s patent.”
