With the degradation of morals, huge political rifts, and racial tensions, what in the hell is the West united by? "Democracy"? Fuck, no one really is united on that topic either because of different approaches to how democracy should be run (see EU)

Eh, we haven't devolved into civil war yet, we're good

Civil War does not have to be through blood. Remember that before every civil war, every revolution in the democratic West for the past two centuries were proceeded by heated political tensions

u wot m8

Shouldn't the collapse of the Roman Empire and the Black Death count as two for Western civilization alone?

But to answer the OP, probably not how you're imagining it.

Major regression to human society has only happened once with the bronze age collapse. Society kept on chugging along without the romans and Europe entered into the renaissance shortly after the black death proving that didn't cause a regression.

It certainly will... I mean, there's no way whatsoever that life on Earth, and then Earth, itself, will be able to remain around once the sun goes into ints bloated red giant stage.

But since that's seven-ish billion years away, according to scientific projections... I don't particularly worry, personally.
