#or just stop seeking to amass as much power money and attention as humanly possible so you can sit on it like a dragon's hoard doing nothing

The idea that power comes with responsibility wasn't invented by Spider-Man and the idea that evil prevails when the good do nothing isn't a fairytale. You've got your work cut out for you if you're in these tags trying to convince people who aren't celebrity idolators that these aren't principles everyone should live by.
Everyone in a country complicit in genocide has a responsibility to speak up, especially billionaires and the most socially influential people in the world (or someone who's both). Fighting against those principles in order to protect a billionaire's reputation is a humiliating way that people with no self-respect spend their time.
Demanding higher standards from the most powerful is always time better spent than being their unpaid PR.
