Yay Nihilism, I am writing a paper for it. Any one got any good stuff. Other than nothing exists or has no meaning. I mean I got a lot of stuff but wondering what people can tell me or what there is to be found.

Thanks

wikipedia wrote: Nihilism is often associated with Friedrich Nietzsche, though Nietzsche explicitly repudiated it.

so you can write about him a little but make sure you don't directly associate them. there were also other nihilist 'movements' known as dadaism as well as futurism and deconstructionism. and also:

Martin Heidegger wrote: Nihilism has a very specific meaning. What remains unquestioned and forgotten in metaphysics is being; and hence, it is nihilistic.

try to make sense of that
