Social upheaval is not necessarily synonymous with religious beliefs.
But I would tend to lean more towards the 1% of the 1% that owns pretty much everything having their own little technocracy, with stuff the rest of us may not
ever see, much less see in 50 or 60 years, which is purportedly how far ahead skunkworks tech was back in the eighties, even before the exponential development of computer technology.
Not to mention the not so subtle intentional burial of basically all competing energy production technology by the fossil fuel industry. It's just insane to me that we're still running internal combustion engines in everything and depending on older nuclear plants built with 50s and 60s technology as well as coal fired plants which, even made to be "clean" are nowhere close to environmentally responsible and as far as I know still provide somewhere around half the electricity in the US.
