I'm not familiar with the British idealistic views so can't comment, but "forced" to know about German idealism / romanticism coz it had a very destructive and distorting effect on east Asian philosophical systems. It took tedious and prolonged effort to exorcise that spectre from those systems.
Thanks for your response Ms. Jones, the person who elaborated belong to a particular religious school and it's from that angle.
Now I'm a bit apprehensive about posting about religious philosophy. Rather I'll dm you the link in X for your own perusal so that if you may find something of value to it.
"But what is liberty without wisdom, and without virtue? It is the greatest of all possible evils; for it is folly, vice, and madness, without tuition or restraint." ~Edmund Burke
The sentiment/rhetoric of Burke quoted there is one which I’m in agreement with. There are however, certain philosophical roots of Burke which (if assented to intellectually) leave an individual highly prey to authoritarian collectivist control - albeit of the more ‘traditional/conservative’ flavour - but nonetheless, still serving Statism (whether that’s ‘secular’ governance and positivist legal theory, or certain co-opted theological movements. British and German Idealist roots have been key in animating Statism through a rhetorical and cosmetic veneer of Tradition™️ every bit as much as they’ve animated their dialectically ‘oppositional’ “revolutionary” forces/movements, at a distance via proxy academic and ideological fronts.

Thank you Indranil for sharing that. Would you elaborate in a little more detail for the readers? Your insights I think will be valuable here.
