A Flexible Ideology allows for a changing, transformable Social.

A flexible Ideology allows for a changing, 'transformable' Social. A 'Social' is never a fixed entity. Its always changing and the external relations between the Individuals in the 'condition of togetherness' can undergo changes. The Individuals do not undergo changes, they remain 'Politically Equal' and 'Politically Free'. As 'Individuals' they are always Equal and Free, but in the 'condition of togetherness', there can be variations. The reason for that is that the 'Social' is always in motion, in activity, 'Institutionally' and 'Individually', and can be subject to variations. Advances in Technology and Institutions can create subtle changes in the Social. Hence, a Political Entity must become aware of those changes and modify its 'political attitude', but always within the 'context' of its Political Identity. For Example, a Democracy allows for the proper Political Response; one that usually expands and changes the Social. Of course, an Autocracy does the same thing but within limits. The Social in a Democracy is 'wide open' to new advances and a proper Democratic Political response. An Autocracy usually suppresses Social Changes to protect its Authoritarian Regime. It only allows those changes that do not threaten its Authority. An Autocracy is an Example of a Rigid unchanging Ideology, while the Social in a Democracy can be modified by new advances in science. That's why Ideology must be Flexible in a Democracy. The People can change within a Democracy, but its Ideology needs Flexibility. A Rigid Ideology or strict Party loyalty only creates political Problems between the Parties or the People and even in the Democratic Principles that maintains the integrity of the Entity.
