Did he even care? Nietzsche didn’t write for them, simple as that.

He did
He was always seething about worker protests and le socialist rabble rousers

Seemed to share the basic traditionalist understanding of social orders; people aren’t born where they are by accident. Probably recognized that the notion of rights was a socially constructed invention of the English bourgeoisie. All that would lead to the conclusion that socialism was just another manifestation of the slave revolt in morality and that the claims of universal rights was just the will to power of the English race

Maybe he thought that the hierarchies of mankind are fundamentally biological/ethnic/racial even within supposedly homogenous societies, and that movements like socialism and the French Revolution and everything inspired by them constituted a large-scale revolt of unintelligent, barbaric men against their now-decadent and formerly warrior caste aristocratic rulers. Maybe he predicted that the end-points of ideas like universal human suffrage and equality would be a society that devolves into a schizophrenic chimera of unchained self-destructive hedonism as well as endless puerile moral browbeating that eventually leads to extreme violence. Maybe he even thought that when such slave types assumed power, they would stop at nothing to bring down mankind from any heights they could possibly achieve purely out of spite for the great and beautiful. Idk tho I've never read him

Why can't people with low will to power organise into a collective entity with strong will to power?

Nietzsche was not against improving safety regulations and wages of workers, he was against giving them a bigger say in the daily plans of society. Along with all the other socialists and democrats etc.
