Close, but the third syllable is different. You’re correct that its not a silent vowel, it’s pronounced exactly like the short version of the article “a”, or the first letter of the word “announcement”.
Lol no, it’s nihilism. There’s literally “nihil” to talk about.
I only meant it in the same way that if someone spoke about an author who’s famous for writing about how to deal with depression and I replied “i hope that author helped you with your depression.”
Whenever I see this meme, think about Nihilists discussing Nietzsche.

I’d pronounce his name like the Russian word for “no.”

Njet-ze komrad
I’ve never seen Marx and Nietzsche in the same room…
Nope, it’s nee-chuh. I also mispronounced it for years…

Are you trying to get me to talk about nihilism? My reddit days are gone, lol
