what's your opinion on nihilism?

Alright I really didn’t expect this question 😶 Let me do a quick disclosure first: I’m a stem student and have very limited knowledge of philosophy besides a couple books from Camus and Sartre. I’m only capable of sharing my own understanding and opinions within these limitations, and I’m opening up the space for anyone’s experience and expertise in this field.

And going back to nihilism itself: I actually recommend everyone to watch a movie called ‘a ghost story’, which seems be the inspiration for skiddles music video ‘Ex’. I feel like this movie gives a comprehensive over the idea of live and death and beyond in a way that’s somewhat easy to understand. Nihilism can be interpreted in different ways; you can use that theory to think that nothing matters after all, and you can also use that theory to strengthen your mind thinking that ‘because nothing matters I now have all the freedom to do anything I want’. It’s an interesting topic and I’d also love to see what others might think of it!
