You may have fallen into the usual trap of nihilism. Absolute nothingness, and by the same token the Buddhist void, does not negate existence. It negates all thoughts about existence.
Absolute nothingness is a total absence of thought, notions, feelings, beliefs and mental activity. From this point one can see that it is us who make everything up, including all disagreements.
