The definition you gave for nihilism sounds like epistemological nihilism ('nothing can be known'), which is one type of nihilism. Existential nihilism ('nothing has innate meaning') is another type, moral nihilism ('nothing is right or wrong') yet another. One person can hold any combination of these views.
