Avatar director James Cameron is furious that President Donald Trump refuses to accept the doomsaying of global warming alarmists, and is calling Trump a “narcissistic asshole” for not relenting to the climate change mob. [emphasis, links added]
The famed director disgorged his vitriol in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, where he claimed that Trump’s moves to thwart global warming extremism are sending humanity “backwards.”
“I’m frustrated because the human race seems to be delusional about what they think is going to happen next. We are going backwards,” Cameron exclaimed.
The Terminator creator ripped Trump as the “most narcissistic asshole in history since fucking Nero.” And added, “Yeah, you can quote that.”
Cameron worried that the environment is the one thing threatening mankind. He also cites the rise of artificial intelligence and the fall of Hollywood.
“Who’s to say we wouldn’t be going backwards even faster if it [weren’t] for these films? There isn’t an alternative Earth without ‘Avatar’ we can point to and say, ‘It made this measurable difference,’” Cameron bloviated, as he insisted that he and his films are on the “right side of history.”
Cameron has been a global warming alarmist for decades, but he has more recently been very exercised over the advancement of AI.
Only a few weeks ago, he said he was “horrified” that AI could be used to create artificial actors who are indistinguishable from real human actors.
And in August, he warned that if AI got hold of real-world weapons of war, it could be a disaster for humanity.

It appears obvious that James Cameron doesn’t read Climate Change Dispatch; if he did he surely wouldn’t have blurted out this juvenile opinion.
Who knew that a famed director of fantasy movies is also a climate scientist in the side. Perhaps he should stick to making movies.
