Default Just for Harry...Nihilists

Harry ends his rants with the text:

"The modern GOP is little more than an army of moral absolutists led by a
gang of moral nihilists."

Nihilism is defined thus in practically all dictionaries:

Quote:

ni·hil·ism (n-lzm, n-)
n.
1. Philosophy
a. An extreme form of skepticism that denies all existence.
b. A doctrine holding that all values are baseless and that nothing can
be known or communicated.
2. Rejection of all distinctions in moral or religious value and a
willingness to repudiate all previous theories of morality or religious
belief.
3. The belief that destruction of existing political or social
institutions is necessary for future improvement.
4. also Nihilism A diffuse, revolutionary movement of mid 19th-century
Russia that scorned authority and tradition and believed in reason,
materialism, and radical change in society and government through
terrorism and assassination.
5. Psychiatry A delusion, experienced in some mental disorders, that the
world or one's mind, body, or self does not exist.

End quote

Seems to me a perfect definition of the loony left....
