Never put a number on Klal Yisroel.
That’s a funny thing to say when we’re reading in the Torah about multiple times that Hashem commanded Moshe to make exact counts of people and reports the exact numbers. The Torah also says how to do it — indirectly, by using half-shkolim. Using forms is even more indirect.
But I refuse to cooperate with the census, because I want my state and my neighborhood to lose representation. Since there is no prospect of that representation going to anyone but Democrats, I want it to be as small as possible, and removing one person from the count gets me an infinitesimal step closer to that goal.
And what a bizarre thing it is co call it a chilul haShem! You seem to think that is a word you can just toss around to mean whatever you don’t like.
Oh, and the constitution requires the government to prepare a count of the population. It does not require me to cooperate.
