It's going to be dystopian for them whatever happens. And if climate change is all it's drummed up to be, it's going to be even worse. And they deserve every bit of it plus extra.

If 'climate change' is either overrated or somehow halted, well, they're still going to be living on a planet in which the group that dragged everyone into Gesellschaften, 'late modernity', etc. may no longer exist. Pretty sure that means that those things are also effectively finished, especially when the few desirable non-white countries like South Korea are even further on the road to demographic extinction.

Who then will carry the mantle of civilization? The same people who only reached it through a colonialism that allowed them to skip the development processes that took millennia in Europe? Nah. It's going to be like a Mad Max remake except with a cast full of browns, queers, and trans. Juan, Muhammed, Ngubu, Shitavious and Tyrone fighting over scraps.

It's way worse than previously predicted, and it can't be halted.

Those people are the first ones who will be either enslaved or killed off.

Dyson sphere technology is still a ways off, so we have to accept the weather and climates we're handed.
