Democracy is a outdated idea. The future will be oligarchic.

Democracy in the Philippines works just fine. I guess you need to be extremely cucked by Westerners to make it work.

The idea of political progress with democracy as its ultimate realization is a liberal ideology

Have you never heard of Oriental Despotism?

China is the same thing except without the power checks that keep elites from doing dumb kneejerk and overly self-interested shit like China's one party state and business elite do routinely. Oligarchs will be oligarchs, so you need padding and some decent ones. It's honestly all about setup and wider political context, not nominal 'system' which is largely just branding. Western liberal democracies are oligarchies too but more decentralised (and denationalised). I'd prefer an official ruling class so you can more easily tell what the fuck is going on. Particularly who rules the rulers.

Literally everything is a ideology you retard, it's called worldview/culture/religion. You can say the same thing about any concept. That said, 'progress' and 'democracy' are particularly nebulous as they're essentially meaningless, containers for whatever purpose is needed. And make for boring as fuck narrowminded smugness.
