At the same time it was necessary for the federalization to happen in the first place. States wouldn’t sign up if there wasn’t an equal vote per state. It’s like the European Council - you probably wouldn’t get Slovenia to sign up to the EU, if Slovenia got half a vote while Germany got fifty votes. But if the EU progresses farther down the federalization path it will face the same thing where the states become less important and equal representation per state becomes stupid.
The electoral college is more of a equality-prevention mechanism. One vote in rural america, racist america if you will, is equal to ten in a city.

One vote for who will ignore your complaints and oppose everything you care about so they can get an oil sinecure in two years. So important.
Stop voting for conservatives if you hate lip-service.
I did, and after two empty ballots I stopped registering.
it’s hard to know who to vote for if the Democrats and Republicans are both off the table
