It's not hypocrisy unless you can prove equivalency.
This is why I asked you at the very beginning whether you read the tweets.
So. Prove the equivalency.
You are being wayyyy to generic currently to succeed... Just saying one was a racist joke and the other was a pedophile joke isn't really gonna do it.
Little Jimmy reads on the internet that Roseanne Barr is fired from her job because of a Tweet she made.
Jimmy cheers.

Little Jimmy reads on the internet that Gunn gets fired from his job because of multiple Tweets he made.
Jimmy claims that those tweets were from years ago.

And for the record, this opinion was formed on Tailgater Island.
