I know a lot of people who kind of put up with it because "I guess that's how it has to be." That sort of compromise is pretty fragile in the longer term.

If you were talking about the security theater around travel, as well as garbage like secret no-fly lists, I'd agree with you. But requiring a boarding pass to get on a plane is no more ridiculous to a near-total majority of humans than requiring a ticket to watch a movie at a theater.
