Nihilism is not a belief in nothingness. Nihilism is the realization that we shouldn’t rely on outdated belief systems and social myths that don’t really serve our evolution.

Definitely, as the yin and yang dualistic reality inherent to every form of existence, there are positive and negative manifestations of Nihilism. Thanks again Adrian for pointing out and explaining the Positive side of things that are commonly viewed as being completely negative. Your objective perspective is rare, refreshing, and inspirational that helps me deal with day-to-day 🐔 and 🥚 questions that concern relationships between causes and effects.

@@ynnn991 That's a GREAT question. Maybe belief in nothingness is a subset of nihilism without its own term. I'm guessing some nihilists believe in nothing and some don't.

No mention of Nietzsche's idea of 'The Eternal Return of the Same', his most “gruesome” idea, the greatest form of nihilism. Which only the overman can tolerate, can love. And what is this Eternal Return of the Same- but 'Will to Power'. The video, sadly misses this most significant of his ideas.

Nihilism, as with the yin and yang concept of dualistic reality that is inherent to all things, has it's Positive and Negative manifestations. I have not yet read all of Nietzsche's works, but from what I have so far, I am sure that he understood dualistic reality and had the ability to express both the positive and negative aspects of all things. That being said, I totally agree with you and Nietzsche on the importance of creating your own meaning for the meaning of one's own life and the perspective that most religions definitely inspire meaningless suffering and the negative form of Nihilism. Again, I'm thankful for this video's Truth of pointing out that Nihilism can be a very positive mindset that can further advance human evolution as long as it is driven by the genius of Skepticism rather than by religiosity, ignorance, or the futility of Cynicism.

Nietzsche was not a Nihilist nor did he encourage the nihilist pathos. He even mentioned that Nihilism is a ”spectre haunting Europe” and saw many problems with it in the future. Why people often mistake Nietzsche for a Nihilist was because he was an attacking philosopher. He spent alot of time explaining the underpinnings of Judeo-Christian morals and what the drivers of this value system was. It’s more appropriate characterizing him as an immoralist.

Nietzsche was against science, much more than he was against the religion. They are all both the preoccupations of masses. So Nietzsche was not materialistic for sure. At least it’s clear of you pay close attention to his writings

A lot of people associate nihilism with "meaninglessness" when that's partial. In nihilism life is INHERENTLY meaningless but it's on the individual to cultivate meaning. While accepting all of life has no point or value and is fleeting. Peace to all.

I thought nihilism Is the philosophical view of nothing matters in the end because life has no true purpose or meaning because these were Artificially social constructs.
