Neo-Nihilism: the Philosophy of Power

Contents:
– Introduction
– Morality is Illusion
– Law is Force
– Life is Will to Power

This text concisely puts forward the case for a form of nihilism – fusing thoughts from Hume, Schopenhauer, and Nietzsche, amongst others. It forcefully argues that morality as we know it is a power structure disguised as knowledge; that law is based upon this false idol; and that thus power is, in fact, the basis of all life.
