I don’t understand this comment. You first said you don’t understand the fascination with nihilism, and then followed with information on how nihilism will shape the future society? You say nihilism is about destruction, that’s far from the point. Have you read the preface of Human, All Too Human (i’ve only read the preface not tryna be a smartass). Through nihilism free spirits are born.

Perhaps you meant something along of the quote by Kant:

“Skepticism is thus a resting-place for human reason, where it can reflect upon its dogmatic wanderings and make survey of the region in which it finds itself, so that for the future it may be able to choose its path with more certainty. But it is no dwelling-place for permanent settlement. Such can be obtained only through perfect certainty in our knowledge, alike of the objects themselves and of the limits within which all our knowledge of objects is enclosed.”
