So the judge is a solid Democrat? Noted.
Lol, if you say so. I'm not following the case as closely as some.

And like in usual pompous arrogant narcissistic fashion, you threw up the 🤚 in ignorant denial. 
Translation: You provided rebuttals where you logically explained why my assertions are invalid.

Like everyone has said…two tiers of justice when it comes to democrats (Bidens, Clintons, Obamas, et al) and everyone else. 
Prison sentences are not black and white, that's why we have judges. They have to take a multitude of things into account such as what compelled the defendant to commit the crime, how far they went to commit the crime, whether they were aware they were doing anything illegal, are they taking accountability for their actions, do they have a prior record, etc.

These questions matter, because it's not just about what rule was broken, it's about the level of malice involved and whether the individual who broke them is a threat to do so again.

Yet despite all of this, you send me about a dozen or so links comparing the Hunter Biden case to other cases, yet these other  examples seem to only go skin deep. The argument appears to be "person X evaded taxes and went to prison, therefore Hunter who evaded taxes should also go to prison"

As an example, here is an article from politifact examining the difference between the Hunter Biden case vs Wesley Snipes (your first link):

Based on how little effort you appear to have made critically examining the articles you cited, I see no reason to look at any of the others. If you want, instead of spamming a bunch of links provide just one that you are willing to stand by as a solid example.

That’s why anyone and everyone cares. 
Even if I granted your first contention, this still would not explain why anyone should care. The son of a sitting president getting a more lenient sentence than he might have gotten otherwise would be wrong, but is hardly worth congressional hearings and the daily devotion to right wing media we are seeing. There have always been two tiers of justice, one for the poor and another for the powerful and well connected. This is nothing new or newsworthy, and no one on the political right ever cared about that before so it's quite a difficult gripe to take seriously.

The mere fact that I (or anyone else for that matter) has to point out the fucking obvious to you just proved you’re an ignorant denialist of the fact based truths in which you don’t know, choose not to know, and purposely deny when thrown in your narcissistic face. 
But I'm the one who's pompous and arrogant. Ok bro.

Intellectual cowardice and denialism is exhibited by the unwillingness to engage in rational dialog, like for example, responding to a seven paragraph dissertation on why your position is wrong with a one sentence reply calling the author of that dissertation a an intellectual coward and then moving on as if no points were ever made.

Look in the mirror.
