Lee didn’t think badly of the Union. In fact he greatly apposed secession, the separating of the Confederation from the Union. However he would go on to resign from the US Army, deny the chance of being a general in the Union, and become a top general in the Confederation feeling he owed more loyalty to his state then the entire government.
