How do people so talented and obviously intelligent wind up as being leftists of such limited vision?

James Cameron is not an idiot. He started out as a truck driver, who spent his spare time at the library reading up on filmmaking. He earned his way in the entertainment industry by working hard and following his dream. Many of his movies are legitimate classics in the National Film Registry.

I just can't understand how such a self-made person can be seduced by leftism.

Is it because in Hollywood, you can be ostracized and blacklisted, if anyone thinks you’re conservative?

I don’t understand that type either and didn’t know of his origins so I have to give him his due making it up as high as he has.

At present I am a mere stock footage producer/director/editor and sometimes talent who took a year of TV production in the late 90s and worked for about a decade in public TV.

Maybe he doesn't believe it. He is saying what he needs to say to be accepted in the leftist world of make believe.

I know a lot of well educated, accomplished, and otherwise successful people who, when it comes to politics, will swallow whole every single Leftist lie sent their way.
