this is actually one of the problems I have with the theory that everything is conscious. The electron, like the company, is actually an abstraction and part of a model. We don't even really know if an electron is 'a thing in itself'. Maybe everything is just strings or quarks, or some other smaller particle or just the manifestation of some field (sorry I'm not a physicist in case I'm butchering the analogy).

Even every individual human could be said to be some sort of zoo of 'conciousnesses'. Panspychism posits that consciousness is essentially smeered across the universe like a sort of paste, and if consciousness applies down the ladder I don't see why it doesn't apply upwards.

I think what you're lacking, if I recall correctly about panpsychism, is that only self-organized systems are conscious - not everything.

A computer, birds nest, a gun, a space ship: such things aren't self organized, therefore not conscious.

A cluster of cells, a planet, a star system, a galaxy, they are self organized therefore, permeated by consciousness.

Everything is conscious and nothing is conscious, are equally valid as hypothesis.

Who is it, that is trying to establish a definitive answer to something unanswerable?
