#527 – Outlawed Round Up 8.5.26 Non Criminal Crimes | Moon Racing
August 5, 2026
Episode Summary
We discuss the shift from left-right politics toward individualism versus collectivism, the limits of postmodernism, and the idea that modern culture is entering a new “metamodern” or quantum era. The conversation ranges across activism, truth-testing, cognitive systems, Canada’s political identity, and Michael’s vision for a more sovereign, self-reliant future.
Now based in Toronto, Adamson continues to produce ambitious, materially committed paintings that speak directly to the current cultural hunger for authenticity, optimism, and human presence in a digitally saturated age…
