The slight majority of Americans say they are worse off than four years ago, while their assessments of the U.S. economy are subpar and inflation remains a key concern.
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.
Things can absolutely get better, I can concede that. It’s just that the bad guys won, the workers of the world already lost against the forces of endless exploitation.
I’m not going to stop fighting for everyone to be free just because of a few setbacks that happened before I was born.
Does it look hopeless or is it just hopeless?

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
If things will literally never get better, it isn’t being defeatist, it’s being defeated.
You can’t stop the sun from expanding.
Of course, if you concede that things can get better, even a little, then things are worth fighting for.
Something tells me you won’t make that concession though.
