Nope, I’m seriously asking why anyone should bother if things will get 10% worse every year.
The problem here is you can’t seem to decide whether that claim is serious or a joke.

I’m serious things are getting worse for a lot of people. Maybe 10% is a bit hyperbolic, but my rent went up by more than 10% in just the last year, I know I’m not alone there.
Food prices went up, COVID subsidies ended, energy prices go up, transport costs go up. All tied to this admins foreign and domestic policies.
We can quibble over if it’s 10% or something slightly lower number, but unless you’re in a bubble things have been getting worse for people.
Also why bother? I’m willing to fight even if it looks hopeless and I don’t think I’m alone there either.
Does it look hopeless or is it just hopeless?
Because even if you are being hyperbolic about the 10%, if it definitely always gets worse every year, then it sounds like it’s just hopeless and we should all give up. Because, based on what you have said so far, life will never get better no matter what.
That makes any fighting pointless.
That’s just being defeatist, I really don’t care how hopeless things get, people can organize their way out of it.
Even if the AMOC collapses in 30years I’ll still be around, having perfect opinions
They will perform on Lemmy regardless of what I say. I enjoy giving such people enough rope.
