Abstract. The article is devoted to the conception of reality doubling by the German sociologist Niklas Luhmann in the context of the gnostic worldview paradigm of the epoch, which is used to substantiate the medial shift that occurred in the contemporary information society and led to the reactivation of the ancient occult-mystical and quasi-philosophical paradigms associated with the Middle Eastern religious practices of the beginning of the Christian era. Researchers are concerned with the presence of nihilistic features of the modern media that copy the behavioral stereotypes of the gnostic antisystems of Basilides, Valentine and Satornilus.
