The core tenets of nihilism are explored in this video, a philosophy that asserts the inherent meaninglessness of life. The discussion traces its historical development, from early thinkers like Friedrich Jacobi and Friedrich Nietzsche to its influence on 19th-century Russian political movements. Various forms of nihilism—existential, cosmic, ethical, epistemological, and political—are examined, with the key arguments behind each presented. The video also contrasts nihilism with existentialism, highlighting existentialism’s more optimistic outlook on finding personal meaning despite life’s absurdity. Ultimately, nihilism is a harsh yet honest philosophy that challenges conventional beliefs about purpose and significance.
