> Does democracy die in indifference?
No, it dies when you have a (de facto) two-party system and a Senate structured the way ours is, and one of those two parties has a constituency that favors coups while benefitting from aforementioned Senate structure to have a great deal of power. Same constituency is also very resistant to any media that might try to convince them coups are a bad idea.
That's what may kill (our) democracy: anti-democratic coups being pretty damn popular. Not indifference.
