    Anything can be classed as art if you ask the right person. Personally I don't see destruction as art~

    Yes, because in process creation, you need destruction something to create other thing. That's it... Nothing it's created from nothing.

    They are not destroying for its own sake. They're destroying for an ideology.

    Destruction for its own sake, glorying in carnage.

    If done right, then yes: destruction is art
    If not, then no matter how much you want to describe it as art I have to agree, because of the definition of art, but I don't have to like it

    its like drawing on the beach. Half the joy is seeing the tide remove your work. Or building a tower of cards to crash down hours of efforts in a single moment of unadulterated bliss.

    Eh that sounds much closer to pyrophilia or pyromania rather than nihilism.

    Art is defined as something that has no purpose other than its aesthetic appreciation, that is why no car is considered art, so the question is: Does the destruction in question have a specified purpose?

    Art is quite widely defined nowadays, but basically, anything brought up to a higher level could be classified as art. Because anything done to the point of perfection with finesse has beauty within it, and that beauty itself is art.
