Modern Day Plague – Beating the Pestilence That Is Society

Modern Day Plague – Beating the Pestilence That Is Society

By SOME DOSE | 6/2/2025

They say the plague is over.
But look around.

Chronic burnout. Existential dread. Microplastic-laced tears sliding down your face during another 8pm doom-scroll. If you’ve ever screamed into your jumper while society casually implodes… congratulations. You’re alive in the modern world.

This isn’t just inconvenience. It’s pestilence with a PR team.

So how do we survive it?

The Diagnosis: You're Not Broken, You're Contaminated

Let’s be clear: there’s nothing wrong with you.
You’re reacting appropriately to a system engineered to extract your joy, attention, and life force.

Symptoms may include:

  • Persistent feeling of “what’s the point?”
  • Screaming into the void (and hearing your own echo)
  • Compulsively trying to ‘be normal’ in a profoundly sick society
  • Allergic reaction to productivity culture

These are signs of exposure to societal rot, not personal failure.

Archetypes as Your Anti-Pestilence Protocol

What if the cure isn’t reinvention, but remembrance?

Your archetype — the ancient symbolic pattern pulsing beneath your skin — is a preloaded blueprint for survival. Not in a "hustle-harder" way. In a "remember-you're-an-angelic-warrior-with-skeleton earrings" kind of way.

  • The Fool reminds us to laugh in the face of collapse.
  • The Goddess builds beauty amidst decay.
  • The Shaman makes medicine from madness.
  • The Realist packs a go-bag and three contingency plans.
  • The Dreamer builds alternate timelines like lego towers.

You weren’t made to assimilate. You were made to transmute.

The Symptoms Society Doesn’t Want You to Name

You’re not ‘too sensitive.’ You’re registering invisible trauma fields.

This plague doesn’t show up on blood tests. But it’s measurable in:

  • Relationship detachment
  • Creative numbness
  • Nervous system volatility
  • A sudden, unexplainable urge to burn your phone

Society profits from your disorientation.
Archetypes give you orientation.
