Anti scientific movements in the united states are at work with anti-science sentiment. We really need to think about empowering people and making them feel like their not being told what to do by people who are out of touch with them. There is no such thing as 'immediate, integrated conscious experience' The human brain works at a certain set of time scales. Even though neurons are fairly close together, they are still spacelike, separated. At any one moment of time, that is to say, neuron on one side of your brain will require some time to send a signal to the other side of your rain. So in what sense can we attribute an instantaneous notion of integrated conscious experience?
