If half a dozen members of a life peerage can dismantle democracy (as opposed to, say, a military coup or a self-coup/insurrection), was there much democracy to begin with?
The Washington Post is wrong; democracy does not die in darkness. Democracy dies in the offices and chambers of technically constitutionally legitimate governing elites who willingly bend to the fascists or other violently anti-democratic types. It happened in Weimar and it appears to be happening here.
