Realistically, only extinction. Because marriage is just a fancy pants word for the union of parents, and will always exist as long as we need two to make baby.
Because the inverse of his point is also true. MGTOWs and all the other anti-marriage crusaders don't offer anything either. They just tell you "don't do it" and then vaguely handwave either a utopia where women are properly controlled (lol) or something something artificial wombs.
All the criticisms are valid, usually, but they don't offer a solution to go forward with anymore than the Evangelicals do.
MGTOW at least offers protection from a system designed to destroy a man's future. It's not a societal solution of course, but it doesn't claim to be for the most part. There are solutions, but they all involve fixing the rotten incentive structure that rewards women for destroying families. That those solutions are politically unfeasible isn't on MGTOW. It's not their fault (or the Evangelicals for the matter) that women would rather destroy society than accept anything less than absolute power in a relationship.
A man has no future if he has no children, only his limited lifespan. In that sense, it only affords him protection for his own hedonism, his personal pleasures in this mortal coil as he dies failing to accomplish the only single function life is designed to fulfill.
They aren't wrong to want to protect yourself. But "lol just fix all of society first, then we ball" isn't a solution. As such, they shouldn't be prescribed as one. Only a stepping stone to fixing yourself before you go back out in the world.
Marriage is risky but what is the other option?

How sad your life must be if you think having a child is the "only single function your life is designed to fulfill".
I suppose the life of Jesus and his disciples (those that had no children) was meaningless?
