You two seem to be talking at cross-purposes. You are talking about political nihilists and he is talking about existential nihilists.
Fair enough. I thought that's what was being implied, and I would have been fine to discuss instead the differences between an atheist and an existential nihilist had the opportunity arose, but the point is moot now, given the circumstances.
If you believe it, question it. If you question it, get an answer. If you have an answer, does that answer satisfy reality? Does it satisfy you? Probably not. For no one else will agree with you, not really.
