The fact that you don't think actively insulting Carlos for his ethnicity and sexuality(he literally made jokes about how many d!cks Carlos sucks) while "debunking" him is rather concearning.
Well Ben Shapiro is a friend of his and whenever Crowder has him on he makes jokes about Jew gold. He constantly refers to his lawyer and friend as his "half Asian lawyer." It's his comedy style, Lispy Maza isn't getting any special treatment here.
But speaking of comedians, you have daytime comedians talking about how "white people have ruined America again" and making skits about Dana Loesch (NRA spokesperson) getting shot, feminists on social media throwing around #KillAllMen, etc. etc. That's not even getting into the tons of comedy shows like South Park, Tosh.0, etc. that have said much much worse.
And has already been mentioned you have Lispy Maza telling his followers to go throw milkshakes at people he disagrees with to intimidate them.
Maybe you'll be consistent here and go "well those people should be banned or deplatformed as well." I absolutely disagree, I don't want any of these people to be banned or deplatformed. They clearly have an audience, and I'd rather people be allowed to speak and be challenged by those who disagree with them, and you know, be allowed a little comedic edginess, than turn our discourse into a game of "OOH WOOO, LET'S SEE HOW I CAN GET THIS PERSON DEPLATFORMED."

And I'm sure Crowder totally urged his fans not to go and spam every social media Carlos had. Nah, he certainly wanted his fans to stop; that's why he acted accordingly when he found out they were doxxing people on his behalf... oh wait.
At the bare minimum it doesn't seem like Crowder actively told his fans to go harass the people he disagrees with... unlike Lispy Maza asking his followers to go through milkshakes at his political opponents to intimidate them, or asking his followers to go flag all of Crowder's videos.
That's just an absurd and ridiculous standard to hold anyone to. There are a bunch of people on either side who insult people on the other side all the time. Lispy Maza has "Tucker Carlson is a white supremacist" in his bio, so is it his fault when a bunch of people show up in a mob at Tucker's house chanting "WE KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE." When people get milkshakes chucked at them and people following them around screaming "Fascist!" is it the fault of the media? Or is it okay when some people get harassed and not others? Or is it some tragedy when some public figures get harassed and not others?
Virtually every public figure in politics gets harassed. Lispy Carlos isn't some special sprite here. There's nothing thats... I guess you could say queer... about the situation he finds himself in.
