But for me — though I never liked [[Friedrich Nietzsche ]] — if there is a definition that really fits, it is Nietzsche's old opposition between [[active ]] and [[passive ]] [[nihilism]]. Active nihilism, in the [[sense ]] of wanting [[nothing ]] itself, is this active [[self]]-[[destruction ]] which would be precisely the [[passion ]] of the [[real ]] — the [[idea ]] that, in [[order ]] to live fully and authentically, you must engage in self-destruction. On the [[other ]] hand, there is passive nihilism, what Nietzsche called 'The last man' — just [[living ]] a stupid, self-[[satisfied ]] [[life ]] without great passions.The problem with a post-[[political ]] [[universe ]] is that we have these two sides which are engaged in kind of mortal dialectics. My idea is that, to break out of this [[vicious cycle]], [[subjectivity ]] must be reinvented.
