PLEASE HELP?? Why did the antifederalists oppose the new constitution?

OpenStudy (salemlover352):

The antifederalists opposed the constitution because their leading argument, however, centered on the constitutions lack of protection for individual rights. Gabriel Marrero the anti federalists didn't want the union to have a strong central government, but wanted more power for the individual states. the constitution was lacking a Bill of Rights, which is why the anti-federalists agreed when that was later added

because they thought that a stronger government threatened the sovereignty and prestige of the states, localities, or individuals; those that claimed a new centralized, disguised "monarchic" power that would only replace .... basically same as what @salemlover352 said

A) they believed it favored the more populous states B) they believed it would create an autocratic federal government C) they believed it was a bundle of compromises D) they believed it would propel the nation into anarchy E) they believed it was weaker than the articles of confederation @salemlover352
