This might be what you are missing. Humans don't have freedom or dignity, not as long as we are locked into the system of energy slavery. How can there be any freedom or dignity with that?
If you think you are not, ask yourself if you can avoid using money issued as debt to put food in your mouth. If not, then you are an energy slave just like every other human, as long as we are locked into only using the energy of the planet, rather than the enetgy of the sun, using the instrument of profit to get always more out for a little put in.
Birth of the superorganism has to be for the same purpose as anything born in nature, it's to remove its dependence from finite stored energy resources that it needed to develop to the point when it could be born from egg or mother host, moving to the energy of the greater environment. There isn't much reference from mainstream science about the birth of the human superorganism which appears to be in progress, we've never seen it before in known history. So it can't be just more self fulfilling prophecy justifying always constant destruction, always consumption of the life energy of the planet, this is something very different, not a beast of our creation, this is something being done by nature, something pretty cool, and actually relatively infinitely sustainable.
