Squalid posted:Collapse has a very clear definition and its definitely not "slump." Maybe a nuclear war could cause a real collapse, but even in that event I suspect a few years or decades beyond the initial disaster the lives of survivors would more closely resemble those of us today than that of our favorite characters from apocalypse literature. Nobody ever bothers to elaborate such scenarios in fiction though because its boring and doesn't accommodate violent fantasies. Collapse is something you can build a bunker and feel smug about, slump you never get the excuse to go all walking dead, bury your gold, pick up your rifle, and show the world you're not to be hosed with. You just keep working at Denny's and your dollar buys you a little less each day. So yeah of course no one wants to talk about the big slump.
