>>>>> Contemporary Science Fiction is the most anti-American of genres for the lion’s share of this material is about how hellish the future will be. <<<

If by “contemporary” you mean “since about 1966,” you’d be correct. The feminist faction was especially annoying — Russ, Triptree, Leguin.

Actually I was refering more to the entertainment, not the literature.
And my context is more from 1979 to the present.
Cyberpunk(William Gibson) is unAmerican!
Most sci-fi movies and TV in the last 20 yrs are increasingly made in a very unAmerican country that does not respect us- - I am talking about Canada.

Science Fiction movies and especially TV all seem to have a leftwing bent to me.
Science Fiction TV has always existed to shove some liberal messages down our throats.

Just think what “Star Wars” would’ve looked like were it released in 1967 instead of 1977.
