I don't know. By nature I'm very long term optimistic. It would hardly be the first time in human history that we go through some kind of dark age, only to come out of it and eventually pick up speed towards new highs.
I think perhaps the future consists of multi-polar, virtual communities, hiding in plain sight. The wokists do their thing, crash a society or two, get thrown out, things start to improve, until the next group comes along, generating an anti-group and so on.
Meanwhile, in cyberspace, all the cool kids gather, learn, help each other out.
Of course, since we have about 190+ countries or so, some will be more successful than others, and the interesting thing there is if they will be pressured by the failing ones to submit and share their wealth or if they will manage to somehow stay independent. I think the size of them would determine the outcome. Monaco and Liechtenstein have been able to survive longer than some modern european democracies, so it is not impossible, although difficult.
