i have a Squier Strat SE100, is the whammy bar on in "bad" compared to whammy bars on other more expensive gutiars, such as a fender strat or a Floyd rose system

any lower-grade hardware such, such as tremolo bars, may present such concerns as string slippage on the bridge saddles, making a slight out of tune experience
extreme "dive bomb whammies" require at least a locking nut at the 0 fret to help eliminate slippage on the tuning pegs
other problems that I've experienced include the actual tremolo arm being "too small" to fit in and actually screw into the hole...if you have a snug fit, at least be thankful for that
floating tremolos are a heap of trouble to balance out...be happy with what you have...for now, at least

feels like the screw area is stripped. for the reason that i'm no longer surely finding at your guitar i'm no longer able to tell precisely yet whilst tightening it would not paintings, you may desire a sparkling bridge. Whammy bars are demanding besides so i could only block the tremolo interior the guitar with somewhat large timber. that would carry it down solidly. you're sustain and tone would be a sprint nicer in case you try this.

You have an inexpensive guitar, hence an inexpensive whammy bar too. The cheap ones won't return to proper tuning most of the time. Trade in your beginner guitar and buy an American Strat.

floyd rose is your best bet on one that will tune and stay tuned
