Many anti-imperialists were outraged by the 1902 editorial in the San Francisco Argonaut because it advocated for American Imperialism and the annexation of territories like the Philippines, framing it as a benevolent mission to "civilize" other nations. This perspective clashed with anti-imperialists' beliefs in self-determination and the idea that imperialism contradicted American democratic ideals. They viewed the editorial as a justification for oppression and exploitation, further fueling their opposition to expansionist policies.
