Not sure if it counts as a “weird belief” but I am an anarchist for relatively “usual” reasons.
I believe Plants, Fungi and even inanimate objects experience consciousness (to some extent). Consciousness is, probably, an intrinsic property of matter and it exists throughout the physical universe in some form.
I believe there is a nontrivial chance that plants experience consciouness. Like maybe 20% or so? I haven’t thought about it carefully, and it would require a more operationalized definition of consciousness to assign a solid credence. I thought of this belief before reading the comments and was somewhat surprised to find another person espousing it.
