"Nihilism" in Nietzsche's speech became a Philosophical problem. He called "nihilism", as "the meaninglessness of everything", criticizing the history of the western metaphysics, he considered Platonism and Christian ethics values to be the most important factors in the emergence of nihilism. Finally, with the creation of "superman" and on the basis of the same "humanist metaphysics", he sought to overcome nihilism. But Heidegger studied "nihilism" not in terms of values, but from an ontological point of view. By criticizing the whole western metaphysical thought, he considered "metaphysics" to indicate a kind of relationship with Being in which Being itself sinks behind a curtain of veils into the abyss of oblivion and neglect. In an ontological explanation, he considers "nihilism" to be equivalent to this "neglect and forgetfulness of Being" and on this basis, he introduces "the history of Western thought" as "the history of nihilism development". From this point of view, with the perfection of metaphysics, more perfect manifestations of nihilism are also realized. As far as today, in the "Technological Enframing" which is the final form of metaphysics, "technological nihilism" has determined the world and man in a nihilistic form, in the mood of ordering as standing-reserve. According to Heidegger, in facing this situation, we have no more than two options, either to submit to a complete destruction or to find a way to overcome it.
