I’m not even sure where to start with this because it’s such a vulgar misreading of Hegel… Hegel generally rejected the “thesis, antithesis, synthesis” triad (which mostly comes from Fichte.) Dialectics, and his overall system of immanent critique, have considerably more subtlety and complexity than the determinism and teleology that you suggest. An even cursory reading of any of Hegel’s major works reveals how entirely misplaced most of your post is. I agree that a lot of Hegel’s political philosophy is marked by naivete, but this doesn’t mean his system can be rejected wholesale. That we should avoid this wholesale rejection in the face of apparent contradictions is actually one of Hegel’s basic points!
You must know you're advancing a recent idea about Hegel? I believe your viewpoint has about fifty years of age to it, and few observers made these claims prior. Now, as popular as this 'recovery' of hegel has been- it has been strongly argued against with very manifest arguments from the major hegelian works. I guess it could be that people misinterpreted hegel for a century and then we managed to figure him out correctly in the post war.... but what I am convinced actually happened is that Hegel was so popular and influential that after his dialectical methods became seen as silly, in order to preserve the myriad fields that had been founded by their use , a hasty revision was developed so that we didn't have to throw away all his ideas had spawned.
