It's really damn easy to project leftist thoughts on movies directed by Mr. "Terminator is scarier because he is a cop" Cameron.

Socialism or barbarism.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops. Stephen Jay Gould
