when a jew says something defending immigration, just call them an antisemitic bigot, that we need israel's total border closure policy, and don't let up, just repeat over and over again that they're an antisemitic bigot for opposing closed borders like israel.
since all their shit is performative, not actually based in logic or reality, they'll back down.

The problem isn't specific to Muslims. Banking is vital to modern economies and it will exist no matter how hard you try. Best you can do is regulate it. 0% Max interest is not a useful regulation.
Replacing interest with recurring fees follows the letter of the law which is how banking works in Islamic countries. Banning interest is too simple and it will be worked around by people more clever than you.
If I lend something to you, there's a chance you damage it or never give it back. I'm going to charge a fee, require a deposit, something. You are arguing against a principle as basic as supply&demand
No, I'm not. You are talking about compensation for lost or damage goods. Interest is the earning of money without anything being produced. If you borrow $100 from me, and you pay it back in 1 year, if I charge you $110, this is interest. The $100 has not been "damaged". The interest earned is a completely different concept from money held as security against a borrowed item.
> You are talking about compensation for lost or damage goods
Paid with the loan, based on how much your borrowed and how much time you have my money. Call it an annual percentage rate.
> Interest is the earning of money without anything being produced.
You told me you were doing something with the money. If you borrow my hammer to build a shed, pay me. If you borrow 10k to build up a business, pay me.
Basic supply and demand. I have something you want. Pay me.
Anytime I lend anything out, I'm risking not getting it back, to only getting part of it back, to wear and tear. For money, I'm losing out on it being available to me. Pay me.
It's a short term emergency loan. You spent money you didn't have. If you don't want 26% there are other ways to get loans, but you have to fill out some paperwork and that'll take a day at least to get approved.
I just checked. My Amex is 29%, Amex personal loan rates are 5.91% to 17.97% based on your credit view score.
So it's an option, an option many consumers want to use, let them.
They got power. All they had to do was not be Evil incarnate
