Don't get me wrong, I agree that sometimes freedom has to fight for itself

have to defend democracy or it will be eroded

Are we sure this is going to happen? Or it is possible that we got convinced on that by people who don't care about democracy, only want to be in charge?

Yes, I'm sure failing to defend democracy will result in it being eroded. Of course people can use this to their own personal advantage and claim democracy is at stake when it is not. Voters need to be well informed to discern whether those claims are legitimate, or not.
