Nihilism is a logical fallacy and to believe in it is utterly delusional. To assert “nothing” is to contradict the assertion. To assert “nothingness“ or that “everything is nothing” or that “nothing exists” is actually just a form of materialism in which the concept of a void is reified as just another kind of thing. If someone was truly a nihilist they would have to refute nihilism, for nihilism could not possibly exist, nor could nothing or any nothingness be established. Nihilism is logically impossible.
