He’s right until you get to the last sentence. If everybody on both sides becomes a nihilist it will be hard to get back to anything good.

I choose to believe that what the author meant is that their nihilism will be their downfall. Not that we become nihilists to fight them.

“ He’s right until you get to the last sentence. If everybody on both sides becomes a nihilist it will be hard to get back to anything good.”

It is now actually impossible, not just “hard” but impossible, to get back to anything good. He is not wrong here.

Which is why I believe that a Russian nuke going off over D.C. (and likely New York, Chicago and LA too), or the equivalent thereof, is the only real chance the country has to survive as anything other than a fascist dictatorship.
