Is there a name for the trope where a story is high fantasy at first glance, except for it's not fantasy and is actually set in a post-apocalypse dystopian future?

I have no idea the answer to your question, but I now know like 99% of people on lemmy have shitty reading comprehension.

Seriously. There’s a dozen links to TvTropes and almost none of them match OP’s description, but they’re all upvoted to high heaven. Not to mention the unrelated replies talking about their favorite stories which don’t actually match the trope either.

People on here seem to not know what a trope is. Holy hell.
