The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

I still new to the faith, but have trouble with the deeper philosophy and answering to subjects like the video by Thomas Ligotti.

Didn't watch your video so just ignore me if I don't answer your curiosity, but the essence of nihilism is that it is man confronting the consequences of a godless reality, that is, nothingness. Nihil in Latin means nothing and nihilists are those who believe in nothing. It's a totally incoherent worldview, a fact made obvious by the conditions of nihilists - most often manics and depressed destroying themselves trying to suppress the dissonance in their heart. Nihilists know deep down there has to be more and they constantly are looking to fill the void that they refuse to recognize. Honestly the best argument to combat nihilism is giving your opponent a quarter and tell him heads you live tails you kill yourself and if they're not willing to do that they aren't true nihilists, rather they're larping for the attention or whatever status it may bring among their gay friends. A true nihilist would realize that nothingness is nothingness and something isn't better than nothing. All is nothing to them and whether there is something or not is purely arbitrary, thus rendering existence and nonexistence one in the same as far as meaning goes. All nihilists are too autistic to trust their nature. It truly is the final form of the satanic cancer of secularity. No atomic bomb can match the destructive power of nihilism. Nihilism poisons everything it touches. It was not Oppenheimer who "became death, destroyer of worlds", it was Nietzsche.

Fr Seraphim Rose has possibly the best work written on the subject.

This is actually pretty true. Nihilists can be answered with Kant or good old Descartes fairly easily (just as a couple of examples) - if nothing else, you know that you exist & can extrapolate the existence of other entities from there. The modern fascination with nihilism really is more about trying to be an edgelord to justify being a lazy degenerate than serious intellectual thought.
