End of Democracy?

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

Due to the corona virus, I see the governments starting to turn away from democracy and going toward stratocracy. What I would like to see in 2040 is that the freedom, so many people have died for us to have, will still be prevalent in the human race. I hope that the governments would value the lives of those people who fought for our freedom and respect the human rights and their right to choose (e.g. whether or not they want to be vaccinated). I hope that more effort will be done to help countries in need and that governments would stop using peoples lives (as with the refugees right now) for their political achievements. The greed for power makes way for corruption, stratocracy and genocide as we have seen in the past. I hope that in 2040 the governments worldwide would be mature enough to learn from the past, set aside their personal interests and do what is good and right to prosper their citizens.

I expect a world totally different from the current one. There are no wars, people live freely without oppression by governments freely elected by the people. Most of the economic differences between peoples have been eliminated. And most people have a job that allows them to live decently.
