Capitalism will fall and a new system will come, either by design or by disaster

No. Disaster only allows capitalists to sell food for everything you have once there is no surplus of food anymore.

If you want something better, you better start now. And no, there won't be a revolution. But you can think of better policies and convince a majority.

Sophie From Mars has a video specifically about this, highlighting pre-apocalyptic non-capitalism (commie-anarcho-pinko-socialist society) and post-apocalyptic non-capitalism, since eventually there will be too few people to set up trade lines.

If we do the latter, then the risk of human extinction in the next few centuries goes up, but Sophie explixitly doesn't talk about that
