I lean toward believing that you can't be un-American without being so deliberately.

I do believe one can be stupid or misguided, compounded with arrogance and certainty of superiority.

By voicing his dissent in the way that he did, he shows contempt for everything that humans have accomplished and implies that life as a Pandora native is a preferable way of life. Even to the point of saying in the movie that we killed our mother (our world). I'm betting he sees himself as a zoo keeper and not one of the inhabitants

By using a time-line set a hundred or so years in the future he also chooses to suppose that humanity is incorrigible. This is counter to the facts inasmuch as we have a constant history of getting better. Certainly not as self sacrificing as radical piece of crap liberals would like, but better nonetheless.

I always liked Cameron, he is probably just misguided.
