Just because we aren’t aware of something ourselves does not mean our brain is not aware of it. If you have ever been drunk you probably know not to trust your top level narrative as the end-all-be-all of your nervous system.
Your body gets a fever without your awareness. Create saliva without your awareness.

So “we” are not our brains
If you want to see how weird it can get look at blightsight. Your consciousness can be blind but your body can still react to visual stimulus.
“We” don’t exist, or rather “we” don’t know what makes us “us”, except for what we do know. Consciousness isn’t fully understood.
This feels closer to the truth.
Exactly, tried to argue this point many times. You are not a brain with a body, you are a body with a brain!!!
Only if you think an iceberg is not an iceberg.
