the only difference between jon hanging his murderers and dany killing her enemies is that jon had a personal stake in his. Jon had been bullied by that one asshole ever since he arrived at the wall. Other than that the two situations are easily comparable

No, the difference is that Jon was hanging his murderers. Dany burned two men alive for not immediately accepting the rule of a foreign conqueror.

Ok. What of the execution of Janos Slynt and the burning of Mance Rayder?

I don't have a lot of sympathy for the Tarlys after they turned on the Tyrells for Cersei so I'm not going to fault Dany for killing them, but I think the difference with Slynt is he was a member of the nights watch and he knew the punishment for disobeying. And Stannis chose to burn Mance, Jon only shot him with the arrow because he knew Mance didn't want to die screaming in front of his men.

SA

Though I think what GRRM said about Tyrion applies to Jon and Dany as well. They both said what would happen if they were defied, and they were defied anyway, so they couldn't go back on their word.

"An important thing that has been drilled in with [Tyrion] since his youth — because it’s very much Lord Tywin’s philosophy — is that you don’t make threats and then fail to carry them out. You threaten someone and then they defy you, and you don’t carry it out, then who’s gonna believe your threats? Your threats have to carry weight. And that’s drilled into Tyrion all his life. So his father says that word, his finger pushes on the crossbow, the decision of a split second, and then it’s done."
