Answer:

  • He knows that their motivations are different from his.

Step-by-step explanation:

In choosing whether to join the conspiracy, Brutus must pick between his kinship with Caesar and his open obligation to keep Caesar's supposed desire to undermine the Roman Republic. Cassius has persuaded Brutus that Caesar intends to introduce himself as ruler. A government would ransack the Romans of their long-held freedoms.
