Marcus-
As a boomer who grew up on the periphery of the shadow of MAD and Nuclear Annihilation, I'm more fascinated by less abrupt versions:I’m intrigued by the possibility of having the whole “game” come crashing down.It is miserable how the economy locks people into one area of specialty. Take away that “mastery” what is left of a person? Let’s find out.
Love William Gibson's use of the term "Jackpot" to describe a slow but unequivocal "slumping" of the game (Jackpot Series) Also Johnathan Letham's use of "the Arrest" for a similarly styled apocalyptic transition... a long, slow spin-out of everything.As an alternative (probably out of reach) Jean-Marc Janovici's Graphic Novel World without End <https://www.google.com/books/edition/World_Without_End/yVwBEQAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&printsec=frontcover> and his emphasis on the distinction between /poverte/ and /sobriete/ and it's implication for our collective (post?)industrial future. sobriete-vs-poverty <https://natehagens.substack.com/p/sobriete-vs-poverty-preparing-for>
