I'm relieved to see that my concerns were not entirely misplaced, blissy. It's essential to acknowledge the philosophical underpinnings of New Weird lest we reduce it to a mere literary fad.

Blissful obliviousness can be a charming affliction, but I fear it may also be a crippling one. Your assertion that the philosophical underpinnings of New Weird are 'obvious' betrays a fundamental misunderstanding of the genre's true innovation: its willingness to blur the lines between philosophy and fiction, rendering the former as opaque as the latter.
