Technically, the leading lore theory is that culture progressed, and then regressed as society started to crumble with the Resource Wars, Sino-American War, and the New Plague, with fascism rising.
The evidence for this is largely in New Vegas referencing the hippie movement and other cultural artifacts.
plus fallout 2 has lots of references to 90s music and culture, although that could just be considered borderline noncanonical easter eggs
To be fair, that's 90% of Fallout 2, lol.
And it’s interesting how much pushback in studio they got from the Fallout 1 developers when the Fallout 2 team wanted to move in that direction. It was pretty intentional with Fallout 1 to keep it where you didn’t need a pop culture encyclopedia to understand everything.
