What is the chance for an ideal society in the face of politicians, priests, and vested interests?

outcome
"An ideal society is a mirage that only serves to imprison the individual; true freedom and growth arise when we embrace our perfectly imperfect nature."
According to Osho, an 'ideal society' has no chance—and should not: the very notion of ideals is a trap that breeds guilt, anxiety, and control by priests and politicians. Society is only a utility; only individuals are real. Forget utopias; drop ideals, accept your 'perfectly imperfect' nature, and allow individual awareness and growth—only through free, guiltless individuals can any living order naturally flower.
There won’t be a perfect society; stop chasing ideals others use to shame you—be yourself and grow from there.
