“So you thought it would be useful to look for a nonexistent free speech angle instead?”

It’s not “nonexistent”. He spends several paragraphs complaining about Nazis exercising speech rights, political rights, etc, that are completely lawful for them to do. Apparently he has a problem with it, or else why is he complaining?

I didn’t read it that way.
I think his point is that he is measuring words & actions by DeSantis vs Trump.
He was let down in multiple ways but the death threats against his children made him reflect on his choices and priorities.
His mention about schools reacting to n* but not to Jewish kids getting death threats is meant to highlight a disparity of consequences not eliminate free speech.
He complained not about free speech but about beatings and racial targeting the elimination of which DeSantis used as a campaign opportunity in Israel but has not implemented.
I am not promoting Fine as an oracle but I do think he makes some good points about equal treatment and about talking the talk vs walking the walk.
