===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.
