I think I'm okay with this. Things aren't going to get better through elections and court cases.
Their hope in oppressing large swaths of the population is it you will either apologize for your transgressions, accept "re-education", and become a good little drone, or live in a miserable existence, powerless to do anything about it.
There is a third option: if they make it so Joe Sixpack's wife can't get a job and his son can't get into a good college because he made an off-color remark on the internet, he may just decide that he's done with this government.
The whole system relies on everyone behaving and not breaking laws or revolting. If you incentivize the everyday man to break laws and revolt, your government isn't long for this world.
