I find the idea of nihilism really interesting, but I haven't read any arguments on it. Anyone know any nihilistic (preferably non-fiction) books/philosophers?

Start with the Presocratics.

You are making it edgy to be against nihilism, like how christfags are the new edgy.

Start with the greeks, then go to 19th century germans

Lots of dry and complex reading, but get through it and you'll have a complete grasp on the subject.

Otherwise, just read popular classics and cultural fiction until you realize the artificiality of moral/ethical construct as obvious. Layman's shortcut.

This post is so stupid that it has led me to believe that you are in high school. Op, are you still enrolled in high school?

Your OP lacks self-awareness in a pseudointellectual context. Sincerity + ignorance is only accepted if you wear a bandana and write long books, and should under no circumstances be mixed with candor.
