Oh yes portguese man-o-war are an excellent example I’d love to take, which I hadn’t heard of before, so thanks for sharing it! And surely it doesn’t seem possible for human to be tied together into one organic object, for we are structured with such mobility and, independent will, if I may say so. Still, for Portuguese man-of-war the way its polypuses are linked with each other has much less density than the way cells compose one single polypus. As for human it might just be the civilization we have, considering we have rules to restrict the behaviours of our members, and speciality differentiation making persons knowing a little bit of everything but don’t specialtize in one particular field hard to make a living or simply having most of their time dealing with specialized jobs assigned to them so the collective body gets better functioning units. And the way we elect the capable people might also contribute to the generic evolution to better fit as a component to the whole. And it gets more distinct when it comes to one country instead of all human on earth. Interactions between nations seems fairly like that between multicellar creatures to me, having some sections of its smaller components making the decision and some conduct actual actions, and even, show signs of cognition. So would it be appropriate to call countries as organic individuals about to be having cognitions of ‘ME’ and we are somewhat going through the stages before they’re completely formed? And how do you think of what drives the direction of evolution?
