This gerrymandering is a huge deal yes, but I'd also point out that the people of Ohio voted on a Constitutional Amendment that would have prevented this, and the GOP just ignored it.
Ignored the will of the people. If that's not already authoritarian I don't know what is.

Same thing happened in Wisconsin. The people of that state voted to participate in the Affordable Care Act and their government just ignored that too, as they AGAIN are gerrymandering themselves into a very lopsided and undeserved majority.

Look at Texas, now an arguably purple state. The policies coming out of that legislative body and executive office are authoritarian to the core. Telling businesses what to do, private citizens what to do.
From the "smaller, less intrusive government" people no less.

So if states are the breeding grounds for federal office holders I ask you this: what do you think will happen when these people gain a federal majority?
Bye bye democracy.
