Depends on where you are.
Sure, the multicultural big cities of the West, which already have little-to-no social cohesion, will fall apart into crime-ridden, self-absorbed hellscapes.
But there are smaller, more homogeneous communities where social currency means more than money on a local level already. Some of these places have access to considerable farmland, have low welfare rates, and have a hardworking and productive culture. These places are primed to be self-sufficient if necessary, and if they are remote enough that they don't have deal with waves of refugees from the cities, they'll probably do alright in the event of large-scale social collapse.
Anyone who is wise and capable, at this point, is learning some productive skills, arming themselves, and moving their family out of the cities into small and healthy communities. Those people will probably survive in large numbers.
