All fair points. Maybe an Empire with a strong Populist Faction (not a populist myself, but it could help as a bulwark against a consolidated political and financial elite)The problem is that it takes the issues the west already faces (an elite that can’t be removed and that doesn’t listen) and makes it worse unless it’s done perfectly. And even then, it will eventually become corrupt, because nothing built by humans is perfect.
Also because you better believe that any existing political elites are going to do their damn best to get in that system. Plus, neo-feudalism is what they’re going for as an end point.
