The correct answer should be Collectivism

The excerpt claims that people were put down using words like we and working together. The excerpt claims that individualism was destroyed that way.

The correct answer is the following: <em>option b. In the excerpt, the concept of collectivism is the one that causes the downfall of humanity.</em> "Anthem" is a dystopian novel written by Russian-American writer Ayn Rand that was first published on 1938. One of the main themes of the novel is how collectivism is the enemy of the individual and its primacy. As the excerpt shows, the worship of the word "we" is what made men submissive and impotent. The excerpt, as well as the whole novel, depicts the collective society as the destructive force that represses any independent thinker.

Shortly before President Roosevelt’s State of the Union address was delivered on January 6, 1941, Eleanor published her first My Day column of the year. The essay anticipated many of the themes the president would address in his speech. Though hope was hard to entertain, she believed that many Americans would nevertheless find a ray of hope by working together toward the attainment of “peace with honor and justice for all.”She then mentioned the goals (or “freedoms,” in Franklin’s speech) for which she thought people would be inspired to fight: “Justice for all, security in certain living standards, a recognition of the dignity and the right of the individual human being, without regard to his race, creed, or color.”
