For any organism to hold together and be viable, it's critical for all its cells to obey their programming perfectly. If individual cells went off and did their own thing, it would not be viable. Our bodies line up such rebel cells and shoot them by the hundreds every second, the rare ones that somehow convince us they're on our side are called "cancer tissue" and don't contribute to our fitness. You certainly could make some analogies here, and it's an interesting topic. The mass of humankind as a substrate on which memes are selected for fitness, where more viral memes outcompete the less viral ones, now there's a fun one. But a single superorganism... I find it hard to see. Yes ultimately we obey our genes ("programming") in a way determined by our environment... but so does cancer tissue. Plus there's such a great variability in how humans might respond to the same stimuli that we're not like well-behaved cells at all, plus much of the environment surrounding each human is not determined by other humans, which throws a lot of indeterminacy into the mix.
