Fred seems to get called a Nihilist alot.

...But i have never really worked out wether it was intended to mean 'revolutionary' or 'anarchist'.

...His take on life or his 'politics' if you will, are only negative if the reader/listener themselves is of a closed mind.

So what do you reckon... Nihilist? or Not?
 
Nihilism as Nieztsche (correct spelling) describes it means denouncing all values of society and establishing your own.
Nietzsche's key mistake in my eyes is that he fails to see society's germ inside himself and that he does not replace these denied values with anything, but simply accepts the primordial urges as the final step of evolution.

what I have learned from him is that one must question the structures of morals and values of society, and see what are the motivations behind them.

denounce that which fails in itself, praise that which is free of tools of oppression.
