It's trivial for the state to punish you and nearly impossible to assert your own rights. It is a very hard legal battle to get those rights acknowledged and upheld by the courts.

What are you basing this on? This administration is constantly losing in court.
They lose but ignore that they have lost, just keep going, the courts aren't shutting them down very effectively.
They mean it’s costly - in time and money - so in practice random individuals who are abused by the government can’t defend their rights and simply have to accept losing them.
Plus even if the administration loses, why would they care? They aren’t going to jail for those losses.

Which is far from “nearly impossible.”

Neither is someone whose TSA PreCheck is revoked.
