I believe this is true of any philosophy that believes itself the path to progress.
If I believed my philosophy would result in future generations looking back at us as a pinnacle of human rights and technical progress - I’d look for a different philosophy.
It’s also fair to say the path to that progress you referenced in comparison is historical record - we know the societal structures in place when we accomplished that.
