As you mentioned in another comment, you're at least somewhat well off (I don't fault you for that), which means you very likely have stable housing, food, access to healthcare, etc., great. But that means you aren't experiencing the same pressure that the global average person is. I.e. there's still a few necks between yours and the boot.
So it's easy for you to say this, cry "there's nothing that can be done", to retain your conscience while living out your life in relative comfort.
I don't mean to vilify you. Everyone does this to some degree. Life is short and scary, and it's no single one of our faults for the current situation.
But please understand that rolling over on your back in apathy is exactly what those ten men want. And spreading it through social media even more so.
The world looked completely different 100 years ago, and 100 years before that, and that rate of change has not slowed. There is no reason to think it won't be completely different 100 years from now, and what that will look like entirely depends on what we do now.
