That seems to assume "Dystopia is likely" and "being in dystopia is significantly worse then death".
If you think both of those things are true, though, then what about the odds of our society turning into dystopia in the next 30 years you'll naturally be alive anyway? Should you kill yourself now to avoid the risk of being alive in a possible dystopia in 30 years? It seems fairly silly if you consider it in those terms.
