regardless of if you agree with him or not it would be exaggerating to suggest that's on the same level as Manveer is

Right. Manveer is an unknown developer who made a handful of snarky comments on Twitter that triggered sensitive white people.

Most of Manveer's colleagues and (judging by Twitter) friends are white.

Jon, on the other hand, is a public figure that spent an hours-long debate discussing his real views of how immigrants assimilate into the racial gene pool and how black people are genetically predisposed towards being criminals.

Jon's done interviews with Breitbart and is involved with a fair number of 'alt-right' characters.

So yeah, what Jon did was obviously way worse and his views are far more earnestly held judging by his associations.

That's beside the point, though, and you're obviously entitled to see it differently. I just think it's incredibly hypocritical that many of the people shrieking 'racism!' at Manveer are fanatically defending Jon and whining about essjaydubbleyewz. It's either all okay, or none of it's okay.
