Exactly. If he cared that much he could quit and live off of his millions trying to help mitigate the damage by informing the public of what is pending and ideas on how to push back.
It's not a calling that's suited for everyone, some people spend their whole lives trying and accomplish nothing.
I lose little respect to someone who sounds the alarm for others but chooses the easy path for themselves. There are so many who won't pull the alarm, or outright try to prevent people from doing so. We only have so much time to spend.
Seems like a weird take. Poets, musicians and artists have a very long history of inspiring and contributing to movements. Some successful, some not successful. Sometimes heeded and other times ignored until it was too late. But to say being a poet is not trying to inform people is ignorant at best, and is a claim that will need evidence.

A poet can't inform people of things?

Sure, back in ye olde thymes. Things are different in the attention economy and messaging has to be crafted to the audience it serves.
