Once you start tearing up democratically elected seats, and I’m not saying don’t because fuck fascists, but once you do you gotta think that republic is on flimsy ground.
The House is supposed to provide proportional representation, per the US Constitution. It has not since the early 20th century. Instead, it gives significant increased representation to people in lower population states.
Madison’s Grand Compromise was to give EXTRA representation to low population states (2 senators regardless of a States population), not proportional representation.
