Hmm I would analyze this as a power struggle and the dynamics of the individual. As you can see, Marcus is arguing for his own freedom and states about "we used to be a free country" and also hints at the lack of privacy. You can feel the tension and the anger flaring in him from the diction that he uses to describe this, here his power and his rights is being "destroyed" because of not only the propaganda- but the symbolic figure of Mr. Benson- forcing him to apologize. Here the power struggle of the individual versus the conformity of a society without freedom of choice is so disliked and unwanted by Marcus he states that "He'd rather get kicked out than apologize."
In other words if you want it short.

  1. He's fighting against a government that limits the freedom of people and how they act.
  2. Symbolically he is fighting against society by being the individual.
  3. He is having problems with Mr. Benson and is not happy by how his used to be free country is now almost a dystopian land and that, there are no individual rights.

Marcus is contending for his own opportunity and states about we used to be a free nation and furthermore indicates the absence of security.

What happen between Marcus and Mr. Benson in the story?

The pressure and the indignation erupting in him from the style that he uses to portray this, here his power and his privileges is being "obliterated" on account of the publicity as well as the representative figure of Mr. Benson-driving him to apologize.

Here the battle for control of the individual versus the similarity of a general public without opportunity of decision is so despised and undesirable by Marcus he expresses that He'd prefer get thrown out than apologize.

He is disapproving of Mr. Benson and is upset by how his used to be free nation is currently very nearly a tragic land and that, there are no singular privileges.
