Put your faith, P, in two saving factors to set against the nightmare which you - and many other alarmed people - see hoving up so clearly now:
First, the sheer bloody awkwardness of the common humans - we plebs - who will push back, and screw up this monstrous system of control, as always happens. The BellenderGatesoids and their fascistic Reset haven’t a hope in hell, really, you know. Just as nuclear-fusion materials always escape any containment-bottle in which researchers try to enclose them, ultimately-uncageable humankind will invent ways round, behind, and beneath the control systems. The instinct to create a black market never dies! 
And second - and even more potent - is… tara!! - the Long Descent! There are two narratives competing for human attention just now, one hopelessly unrealistic but still very popular for a shortish while longer, the other absolutely real, and coming to get us steadily, ignore and pretend about it as we will.
The horror which you outline, P, is the dark-underside sump of the main article of faith of the currently-world-dominating scientism religion: its all-dazzling techno-narcissist dream of a startrekky future. This is still widely held as a basic, limpidly-trusted myth-faith by a lot of Western and wannabeWestern people around the world. But the other future - the real, absolutely non-gainsayable one - is the Long Descent; the slow, steady fading of hitech industrialism into history; the Single Giant Pulse Event in the life of the Earth, which has already begun its irreversible and non-negotiable ebb-tide. We’re already just about over the cusp of global peak energy right now. (Never forget that the key idea is not how many barrels of oil, etc., are produced each year, but how much energy they actually contain; hint: not as much as previously; and then there’s the absolutely intractable reality of EROEI…). And that’s only the most vital sine-qua-non element in the peak-everything reality which is also now on us. (Without adequate energy from somewhere nothing happens; nothing at all.)
As an example of what I mean, consider veteran oil-geologist Art Berman’s forecast that the output from US fracking wells will plummet this year to less than half of their peak output - putting the whole US into an even more parlous collapse crisis than it’s in already. This - the US fracking slump - is clearly scheduled to happen this year. (I pray in aid here - to quote one of George Galloway’s favourite verbal habits! - Richard Heinberg, Dmitry Orlov, and JM himself, plus several other canny clear-seers, who also accept Art’s estimate as pretty certain.)
The upshot of these upheavals seems likely to be a retreat of current global techno-narcissism into survival-oases in a few regions of the world that happen to be still ‘favoured’ with the last largish pools of actually-getatable fossil-hydrocarbon deposits within their national territories, together with viable reserves of the other absolutely vital commodities which underpin the weirdly-aberrant industrial-civ. model of human society; with Russia leading the field, and China hanging on to the same status for as long as it can (not long, with their demographic nightmare completely unsolved); and with a shrinking tally of satellite states in thrall to those two strongholds. (Oz/Aotearoa as grovellingly-dependent satellites of Russia/China, anyone? 
) Elsewhere, I expect to observe in my next few incarnations - - a steady ebbing away of all the junky consumerist gear and the abundant energy which creates and maintains the modern hitechie life-ways - temporarily, and only ever for the Pampered Twenty Percent.
And speaking of life, I expect the current human-population overshoot episode - already several centuries long - to have resolved itself in the usual grim Gaian way, without any useful input from we feckless hom-saps, by the time this century turns into the 22nd, or maybe by a bit after; just as Malthus predicted, but on a slightly longer timescale than he expected. That’s likely to be pretty chaotic too, and not at all conducive to the sort of hyper-controlling tyranny which so many frightened people are dreading right now. Maybe such hell-holes will hang on in a few awful enclaves, a scatter of declining Efrafas here and there, to pinch on idea from ‘Watership Down’, but with plenty of wild humans still around outside, doing life as they prefer, as far as the harsh conditions of the time allow.
As you can see, P, my counter-vision of where we’re going isn’t pretty. But it has the benefit of being realistic; plus the other inestimable benefit of being Gaia-managed, and therefore ultimately creative and life-affirming (if coloured by her usual ruthlessness). We just have a few little local difficulties to get through first…! Bloody hell, bro, we live in unsettling times. Cling to the Consolations of Philosophy!
