I asked about worldview and it was automatically deleted. Why?

As I understand the Idealism metacausal point of view, physical things are the expression of intentionality. In effect, the expression of a collective worldview.

If that is the case, then, as a collective expression, a person's consciousness might be characterized as the collective's view of the person's conscious perspective. This, in much the same way as when I imagine myself driving a spiffy sports car, that imagined little me's consciousness is my consciousness.

The article Rethinking Consciousness: Could Everything From Animals to AI Be Aware? expresses the argument that all life forms may have some for of consciousness. Would it be true for Idealism that all expressions of life share the collective consciousness?
