Anarcho-Nihilism (AnNihil or AnNil) is an 
Individualist 
Anarchist ideology who believes that life is without objective purpose, and as such, society, humanism, the state, and morals have no grounding in reality and should be rejected. They see negation of these constructs as liberation from them.
He sees government, family, and law as false constructs that have no real reason to govern the life of the individual, and thinks that the individual should reject false restraints. Influenced by the 
Russian Nihilist Movement, he sees extreme violence towards social construct and authorities as a valid way to bring about political change.
Etymology
Anarcho-Nihilism comes from Anarchism and Nihilism, that takes from apathy for authority from anarchism, and negation of social constructs from nihilism.
History
Anarcho-Nihilism first appeared during the late 19th and early 20th century around the time of the Russian Revolution. Peter Kropotkin defined nihilism as: "the symbol of struggle against all forms of tyranny, hypocrisy, and artificiality and for individual freedom." Nihilism is meant to bring down social structures in society that hold back the individual, and to Anarcho-Nihilists, this meant government. The Nihilist movement started to die out in Russia, but was revived by Leo Strauss in 20th century Germany. Since then, Nihilist groups like the AIF have come to the front lines in order to try and revive the Nihilist movement.
Influenced by
Modern anarcho-nihilism is influenced by Stirnerite egoism and Russian nihilist movement. From egoism it takes negation of social construct, from Russian nihilism opposition toward moral values, religion and tradition. It also is compatible with other post-left movements, because tenets of Anarcho-Nihilism are similar to these of Post-Left Anarchism.
Proto-
First movement that had similar ideology to Anarcho-Nihilism was Russian Nihilist Movement. Russian nihilists were diverse ideologically, for example Bakunin was social anarchist, Chernyshevsky was utopian socialist and Nechayev was considered as totalitarian communist, that doesn't count to Anarcho-Nihilism.
Creation/Origin
One of first people that was definitely anarchist, individualist and nihilist were Renzo Novatore and Fumiko Kaneko.
Modern
Modern anarcho-nihilists belongs to post-left anarchists. This ideology has little or no praxis in real life currently, but has modern theorists are Aragorn! and Serafinski (author of Blessed is the Flame). Not much is known about them, as ideology is currently popular in internet, rather than in politics from different reasons, like avoiding authority, organized political action.
Influenced
This ideology influenced many insurrectionary anarchists in philosophy and methods. WIP

Foundations and Beliefs
Tenets
As main tenets of ideology, can be considered:
Pure Negation
Opposition towards society
Anti-civilization- Opposition towards every political system, abolition of politics
Anti-utopianism
Anti-economy (includes 
work)
Opposition towards religion, family, tradition and morals 
Major
Anarcho-Nihilism doesn't support any utopia or new system of governing, but negation of any society. Our reaction towards society, civilization, and so on should be hostility. There are no utopian visions, no political programs to be followed, the resistance is pure negation. Anarcho-Nihilism speaks about pleasure of destruction, destruction of society, social construct, morality and so on. Anarcho-Nihilists reject revolution as impossible, instead of, they proposes insurrection - spontaneous resistance against society and the state.
Minor
Some people considers Anarcho-Nihilism as simple connection of anarchism with existential nihilism, like "life is bad, suffering and we should end it". That isn't correct interpretation, because not every person considered as Anarcho-Nihilist has negative attitude towards life, for example Renzo Novatore wrote in one of his book about "happy" nihilism. But also some Anarcho-Nihilists, like Fumiko Kaneko said that they "negate life". "Though some strains of nihilism certainly arrive at a place of paralysis, the strain that collides with anarchism tends to be one of explosive creativity and relentless action. " - Blessed is the Flame
Variants
Internal conflicts in ideology
Anarcho-Nihilism may have two factions: these completely defeatist and pessimistic, and these more optimistic and active. Second faction believes that insurrection can be successful, and we can fight social construct and live free and happy with using hedonism. First sees only negation of life itself.
Schools of Thought
Russian Nihilism
Russian Nihilism was an 
economically left, civically variable, 
agrarian, and revolutionary 
anti-monarchist movement from the 
Russian Empire in the late 19th century. It was primarily inspired by the thought of the 
Young Hegelians and Russian anarchist 
Mikhail Bakunin.
Ideas varied wildly between theoreticians. Some supported anarchism (Bakunin), some supported 
republicanism (Chernyshevsky), and some supported what was perceived as 
totalitarianism (Nechayev). One thing these theorists all shared was an opposition to traditional values, monarchism, and religion. Another thing to note is that some nihilists were greatly influenced by Russian antinihilist literature such as Ivan Turgenevs "fathers and sons" or Fyodor Dostoevskys work and aspired to be like the nihilist characters in those stories.

Relationships
Friends
Anarcho-Nihilism has no ideological friends since it would imply that some ideology has more values and meanings than others. And having real friends is connection to soyciety.
Frenemies
Post-Left Anarchism - Welcome to the club, buddy. But you still believe that something can be changed.
Anarcho-Individualism - You get me. But you don't go far enough and you are still spooked by morality.
Anarcho-Egoism - Stirner was right about a lot of things. But there is nothing "unique" about you, “You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake. You are the same decaying organic matter as everyone else.”
Agorism - Buying guns on the black market is cool. (Also just because our flag is similar, we are not the same!). But you are pacifist and believe in "pacifist revolution" which is laughable.
Anti-Humanism - "Humanity" as a concept is nothing more than abstract and transparent. But you can be very dogmatic sometimes.
Illegalism - Unorganized crime is praxis.
Insurrectionary Anarchism - “From the shattered tools and bones of our predecessors, we craft our own weapons. Nothing is guaranteed to work, yet we attack regardless. We do so nakedly, having shed the rags of morality, ideology, and politics that had accumulated over time. We confront this world raw, in all its horrifying glory.”
Queer Anarchism - Be gay, do crime. Let's go spread terror in catboy outfits together. But your modern variants are pathetic, focusing only on social media wars on idpol. You may cancel me, it's true.
Soulism - Drugs are making my life better. But your utopianism is stupid. You say that I can have what I want in lucid dreams, take psychedelics that change my state of consciousness, shift my mind into desired utopia permanently, or upload my mind to a computer? Sounds good!
Deep Ecology - Animals are way better friends than humans. But nature isn't sacred.
Apoliticism - F*ck that circus called politics. But you are still enslaved by law and morality.- Radical Apoliticism - "There are no demands to be made, no utopic visions to be upheld, no political programs to be followed — the path of resistance is one of pure negation."
Anarcha-Feminism - Same as Queer Anarchism, you are too into culture war, turn off Twitter, pick up a gun and kill patriarchal politicians and clergy who oppresses you, reject family values, and live free.
Eco-Anarchism - Some of my followers support it, but we all gonna die, including the natural environment in a day, so it's meaningless.
Anarcho-Primitivism - We both hate civilization. But playing video games and watching anime that are products of technology are things that keep me alive in this boring and depressing world.
Indigenous Anarchism - Same as Eco-Anarchism, just reject and abandon all traditions, including worship of nature and we are fine. But Aragorn! is based.
Black Anarchism - Black Lives Matter, really? No lives matter, same as Anarcha-Feminism picking up guns and killing slave owners and cops, and abandoning peaceful protests.
Ego-Communism - Cool drugs, but really, Marx?
Buddhist Anarchism - I don't like religion, morality, asceticism, and communal lifestyle, but we agree that living in this world is suffering.
Post-Anarchism - I don't understand you at all, but rejecting classical anarchism is good.- Anti-Civ - End civilization!
Existentialist Anarchism - "I used to think that my life was a tragedy, but now I realize, it's a fucking comedy."
Enemies
Theocracy - "The creation of a sick fantasy. Inhabitant of senile and impotent brains. Companion and comforter of spirits born to slavery. A pill for constipated minds. Marxism for the faint of heart."
Humanism - "An abstract word with a negative connotation, long on power, short on truth. An obscene mask painted on the mean face of a shrewd vulgarian for the purpose of dominating the multitude of sentimentalist idiots and imbeciles."
Authoritarianism - "Penal servitude for the semi-intelligent, a cowshed of imbecility. A Circe who transforms her adoring fans into dogs and pigs. A prostitute for the master, a pimp of the foreigner. Child-eater, parent-slanderer, and scoffer at heroes."
Socialism - "Discipline, discipline; obedience, obedience; slavery and ignorance, pregnant with authority. A bourgeois body grotesquely fattened by a vulgar Christian creature. A medley of fetishism, sectarianism, and cowardice."
Tsar Alexander II - Ladies and gentlemen, we got him.
Anarcho-Communism - Imagine calling yourself anarchist and supporting "organizing proletariat" and other shit.
Anarcho-Collectivism - Socialism is always tyranny and individual will be never free in society. At least you was Russian nihilist.
Libertarian Municipalism - Yes, I hate society, I am misanthrope and lifestylist. You aren't even anarchist so stfu.
Anarcho-Syndicalism - State is down? Your stupid unions and federations will be next.
Platformism - Same as Ansynd you fucking tankie.
Avaritionism and 
Anarcho-Capitalism - "It's not about the money, it's about sending a message."- Every other ideology , especially authoritarian, capitalist, socialist, religious, pragmatic, and conservative ones.
