There are plenty of situations where, after making reasonable attempts to push back on things and/or develop a better working relationship with a manager, you have basically two choices: put your head down and collect your pay check or go somewhere else (whether internally or externally).

Trust me, I've been there. At one point, I ended up going to my manager's manager--who I knew well--and basically said transfer me somewhere else or I quit. Which he did and I did some legacy work for a while and it was fine.
