Question

an argument made by anti - imperialists in the late 1800s was that the us
should force other countries to be free.
might have to go to war over distant territories.
should force other countries to adopt its culture.
should not get involved in the politics of other countries

Explanation:

Anti - imperialists in the late 1800s were against the United States engaging in imperialist actions. Forcing other countries to be free or adopt its culture was more of an imperialist or expansionist idea. The argument that the US might have to go to war over distant territories was a concern of anti - imperialists as they saw the costs and risks of such imperialist ventures. And the idea of not getting involved in the politics of other countries was a more isolationist stance. But the most relevant argument among the options for anti - imperialists (who were against the costs and risks of imperialist expansion) was the concern about war over distant territories.

Answer:

B. might have to go to war over distant territories.
