he considers the states actions indicative of societys unfairness.

Explanation:

At the end of "Civil Disobedience," Thoreau frames the state as an institution that fails to recognize and value the moral agency and inherent worth of the individual, prioritizing its own authority over the conscience of people. The other options do not align with his concluding perspective: he does not express sympathy for the state, focus on personal misjudgment, or frame the state's actions only as a marker of societal unfairness, but centers on the state's disregard for individual worth.

Answer:

He thinks the state does not appreciate individual worth.
