Yes. You need to use radiation, via radiators. It's a shame I'm getting downvoted on this, because I really do know what I'm talking about on this one. Ammonia in heat pipes wicks the heat away from the thing you want to be cold, towards the radiator, which is usually just a dumb coil, but could be enhanced with a bimetallic thermally decoupled louver if you want to keep it cool in sunlight. Or bury it, since we're on the moon. From an engineering perspective it's not that difficult to do, as the variables which affect it are well known and don't change that much. It is for sure slower than combined conductive/convective cooling, but it's a known quantity, so you can plan quite effectively.

Heat pipes running to radiators in vacuum is how you do it in space. It's efficient and scaleable, though it hasn't ever been done on an industrial scale. Definitely doable though. Considering the temperature on the moon is a balmy -270°C

There is no place in a modern culture for harm-based ideologies like conservatism.

Louder for the people in the back

There are infinite possible ways to implement wealth tax. If you want to avoid your scenario, tax corporations on their profits, reducing the dividend payout to shareholders. For example.
These people have ALL THE MONEY and it needs to be stopped, like yesterday. Find a way.

Maybe if you had used it constructively instead, by, say, making any coherent point whatsoever? Then we wouldn't be here would we.

I haven't once argued in bad faith. You, on the other hand have essentially forbidden any criticism of Israel whatsoever, made no arguments except those where you attack me (hint: this is called an ad hominem fallacy) and continuously hand-waved without actually stooping so low as to tell me where I'm wrong; you just claim that I am but you can't be bothered to say why/how.
Bonus points for your "I know you are but what am I" on the subject of open-mindedness.
If this is you at your coolest, I guess if you were to actually lose your temper we'd just get an incoherent string of characters as repeatedly you smash your keyboard into your face to make a point.

Is this a joke account?

Literally a lie.
Amnesty international.
The UN.
Pretty much every government in the world.

All liars.

My only wish is that Israelis would wake the fuck up and realize that trying to kill all of the Palestinians isn't a winning strategy. Sure, a lot of them don't harbor that sentiment, but enough of them do. I do not feel bad about the Nazis or Japanese Imperialists that were killed in WW2, and I don't feel bad for these idiots that won't give up Zionism to better their lives. All sides have to agree on peace, and as it stands, Zionists don't want that.

Bloody hell, yes. I missed that!

I'm not advocating for genocide, but....

Predictably goes on to unambiguously advocate for genocide
