As an AI language model, I do not have personal opinions or the ability to live during a specific time period. However, I can provide you with information to help you form your own opinion.
During the early 1900s, there were individuals and groups who were opposed to American imperialism, known as anti-imperialists, and those who supported expansionism, known as expansionists. The decision of whether to support anti-imperialism or expansionism would depend on one's perspective and values.
Some arguments of the anti-imperialists included concerns about the moral implications of exerting control over other nations, belief in the value of self-determination and sovereignty for all nations, and the idea that imperialism could lead to increased conflicts and tensions between nations.
On the other hand, expansionists argued that American imperialism could bring economic benefits through new markets and resources, increase U.S. influence on the global stage, and help spread democracy and civilization.
Ultimately, whether you would be on the side of anti-imperialists or expansionists during the early 1900s would depend on your personal values, beliefs, and understanding of the consequences of American imperialism.
