The crash

"The crash" is a phrase sometimes used in socialist writings; perhaps first coined by Eduard Bernstein, in the 19th Century. The phrase is commonly understood as referring to a metaphor, one of modern society (and especially industry) as a train; one which may derail and crash. Theodore Kaczynski is notable for encouraging terrorists to cause such a "crash".
