Velut in Somnio

Duc, duc, remos duc
Flumine secundo
Vivitur, vivitur, vivitur, vivitur
Velut in somnio.

OK, maybe you couldn't get into the religious allusions in the film and found it to be somewhat vapid. Personally, I loved it. But that's neither here nor there. One thing that struck me, however, was this line by Agent Smith:
Agent Smith: I'd like to share a revelation I had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You are a plague, and we are the cure.
Compare and contrast what he says here with the views of the radical left. The same contempt for humanity, the same doctrinaire belief that mankind spreads and destroys resources, the same belief that they are the cure.
