This essay is a good read, but some of the examples it labels 'nihilism' don't exactly fit the bill.The examples that don't fit are more like performative villainy , for lack of a better phrase.

The result again is a pervasive nihilism, where the truth of what’s being discussed matters less than the fact that it is being turned into content, the reaction to which will also become content. as if this is a new thing? This has been going on forever. The media made this complaint in 2017. They called it 'alternative facts'. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_facts
