a means of overthrowing a nation by infiltrating its military forces
citizens who questioned the established political and social norms

Explanation:

Counterculture refers to a subculture whose values, norms, and lifestyles are opposed to those of the mainstream culture. It involves citizens who question and challenge established political and social norms. The first option is about civil - rights sit - ins (a specific form of protest within the civil - rights movement, not the general concept of counterculture). The second option is a CIA - related espionage plan, which has no relation to counterculture. The third option is about military - based overthrow, which is also not related to counterculture. The fourth option correctly aligns with the concept of counterculture as it involves citizens challenging the status quo.

Answer:

citizens who questioned the established political and social norms
