Why did Julius Caesar's rise to power frighten many people in rome?
Brutus (and Cassius) felt that if Caesar became the Emperor or King of Rome, they and the Romans would lose the freedomthey had fought for back when Rome began. They claimed that they only killed Caesar to protect their freedom (as no one wants to be under the rule of a dictator) but later on Rome had an Emperor. Brutus fears Caesar's growing power because Caesar, his former enemy, would become too high in power and I guess he felt unsafe (this is just a guess of mine), and once again, the Romans would lose their freedom. No one knows his real intentions as there wasn't a diary or his life was recorded down.
I will highlight the answer in bold.
