Question

read the excerpt from the communist manifesto. let the ruling classes tremble at a communistic revolution. the proletarians workers have nothing to lose but their chains. they have a world to win. working men of all countries, unite! what is the best meaning of \the proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains\? ∘ workers should take care not to lose their personal property. ∘ workers are so oppressed that they should revolt.

Explanation:

To determine the best meaning, analyze the context of "The Communist Manifesto" and the quote. The first option suggests workers care about personal property, but the quote implies they have no material possessions to lose (only "chains" of oppression). The second option aligns with the idea that proletarians (workers) are oppressed (chains) and have a world to win through revolution, so they should revolt.

Answer:

B. Workers are so oppressed that they should revolt.
