God despises Usury, it's a grave sin. Be careful when you invoke His name and speak on His behalf.

Admittedly I’m not a religious scholar. But I just read the gospels, and I didn’t see Jesus say anything about charging interest being despotic. In the parable of the talents, the master is actually angry with the servant
who burys the talents and gives it back, telling him he could have at least deposited it and gotten back interest. Interest and lending money are not usury, they are productive actions humans partake in voluntarily. Usury is like loansharking, taking advantage of the uninformed and poor. As far as saying Strike is doing God’s work, maybe the Lord won’t agree with me, but IMO fiat currency is humans attempting to act as God. Fiat is a manipulation of time, an abuse of the laws of God, the silver becoming dross so to speak. Any entity pushing sound money and providing solutions in that arena to combat the current debt slave monetary system is alright by me, and I hope God would approve as well
