The philosopher Marina Garcès explains that we are no longer in the postmodern condition, but in the posthumous condition (please, read Radical New Enlightenment if you haven't already). And she speaks of "a period of grace that we give ourselves when we have already conceived and partly accepted the real possibility of our own end". In this way, we (mal)live asking ourselves when it will all end, because the narrative of "the irreversible destruction of our living conditions" has been imposed.
