Answer:

D. Socrates argued that civil disobedience was an obligation for intellectuals and philosophers

Explanation:

Crito is a character in Socrate's The Crito dialogue where he tries to explain his argument for not escaping from prison and escaping punishment/execution as advised by Crito, his long time Athenian friend. Socrates aims to point out the moral point of view or reasoning behind obeying laws and not based on religion. He points out to Crito who advises him to leave because he was wrongly accused that escaping would make him a less virtuous person and unjust. According to Socrates if he leaves he becomes guilty of a crime and therefore should stay and die innocently and virtuously.
