Jokes about throwing acid on people you disagree with=good
Oh leftists...
Count Dankula also wants to know if legal action is gonna be taken.

I don't want her punished and neither does Dankula. The point is to illustrate that he had to go to court over a joke. Now progressives are using the "but it's a joke" to defend this woman.
Do you not see the hypocrisy here, if she isn't taken to court? While *also* being able to recognize her being punished would be wrong?

Former EDL leader Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, twice had milkshakes thrown over him last month during his failed campaign to become an MEP. Imagine if it had been battery acid...Awful
Truly awful indeed, but no worries: it'll stop being tolerated once a female MP gets a milkshake tossed on her.
The milkshakes seem like a big issue nowadays to a certain political demographic.
I don't recall Jeremy Corbyn being hit with a egg causing such outrage. Odd, also, that the same group outraged by the battery acid comment also suggested he should've been hit with bricks instead.
I also don't recall the same outrage when Tony Blair and his front bench cabinet had a powder thrown over them from the public gallery in the House of Commons.
Or when his deputy Prime Minister, John Prescott was punched while walking in public.
Or even when left wing Labour MP Jo Cox was shot and stabbed to death in the street just before the Brexit referendum.

Yes there certainly is hypocrisy everywhere.
I will also point out some of the things you mentioned are why some people are outraged. They know things can turn deadly quite quickly.

And proper action got taken against the person who threw the egg, iirc he went to jail for a month or so.

You see if it was one incident of a milkshake getting thrown on a person I don't think anyone would be outraged, it's the fact that assholes like Lispy Carlos and other lefties are making a movement out of this milkshake throwing thing. It's repeated, it's encouraged sometimes by prominent people, the mainstream media isn't condemning it.

I'm not really familiar with most of those so I can't really comment. I will say though that I don't see a bunch of people cheering on and making excuses for the person who murdered Jo Cox and I think proper legal action was taken against the murderer.

That's the key. Pundits on the left actively encouraging attacking those on the right, deplatforming them, throwing milk shakes, punching them.
It's like Dany in Game of Thrones and the audience: We cheer her on, because we think the people getting burned by dragons or staked deserve it.

Again, why is "prominent people" encouraging violence suddenly a problem now?
Here's an example of a significantly more prominent person encouraging violence on numerous occasions.
Further more.
Take two comparable examples.
Count Dankula makes a nazi joke and is charged and prosecuted for it.
Jo Brand makes a acid attack joke and is currently being investigated by the metropolitan police for it.
Both are (arguably) comedians making jokes as part of their comedy acts.
Some people (on both the left and right) were outraged about Count Dankula's joke being taken out of context resulting in his prosecution.
Some of those same people are now demanding that Jo Brand be prosecuted for the same thing.
This current trend of "well your lot set the precedent for it" doesn't cover the hypocrisy.
