The nature of democracy is that the people are in control of the government... that is the state requires the consent of the people to rule. The state has no authority if it has not been elected by the people. To have an election is a concession made by the state to the people. If the state gives the people full democracy (in the form of proportional representation) then we can consider the state to be acting in a 'nice' way. So then a fully-democratic state is a nice state. But the state itself is by definition a form of authoritarianism and so then it is inconsistent for the state to be nice and it is inconsistent for it to be democratic. It makes no sense for the state to be democratic and in particular it makes no sense for it to use proportional representation. The state is always oppressive by definition so the most logical and consist form of state is outright authoritarianism.
Democracy is a form of anarchy and so then it is inconsistent for the state to be democratic.
