A likely outcome is that three extremes (neoliberals, SJWs and the alt-right) will die down, leaving behind bland, colourless leaders like Keir Starmer. The 1T might feel directionless, like a holiday break from history. Action will start during the 2T.

If AGW wasn't already knocking loudly on the door, I might agree -- but it is. The neoliberals won't take that seriously until it impacts them personally, and the SJWs don't think about issues like that.  So another, more science based phalange will have to emerge, be taken seriously and gain power, or AGW will become a crisis far too early.  Society needs some down time to regroup, and COVID-19 is still the crisis de jure.
