If the Supreme Court agrees they are constitutional then they clearly are constitutional, unless you think the constitution doesn’t apply

Quiet frankly I don't give a shit what a judge says is constitutional when they are acting in direct opposition to the stated goals of the constitution and I don't think anybody else should either. I believe the Founding Fathers both expected and wanted people to stand up in defiance against legal rulings and laws that many find unjust, even to the point of violence after some time. The Constitution starts with "We the People", which means if the people don't agree then the judges are wrong and should be opposed in every aspect.

The US legal system has gone out of control and it is getting to the point where people need to defy the law as a matter of principle and fight for their rights. The preamble of the constitution is pretty clear in its general goals, and working against the people's will, restricting the peoples rights, committing what the people believe are injustices, and causing social turmoil among them, are all blatantly opposed.

And this is compounded by the efforts of multi-generational corporate brainwashing to the tune of trillions of dollars. A critical threshold of people are compromised and this is then used as proof that the "will of the people" is uncontested authoritarian fascism.
