Question

4 (modern connections) tupac often talked about doing whatever it takes to protect himself and his community. how does this connect to machiavellis belief that the ends are more important than the means?

Explanation:

Machiavelli believed that achieving a desired end - goal justified the use of any means, even unethical ones. Tupac's statement about doing whatever it takes to protect himself and his community reflects a similar sentiment. It shows a willingness to prioritize the well - being of the self and community (the end) over the moral or legal constraints of the means.

Answer:

Tupac's view aligns with Machiavelli's in that both prioritize the end (protection of self/community) over the means, suggesting that extreme actions may be necessary to achieve important goals.
