The correct answer is A. Nietzsche considers Socrates as the initiator of this decline, because by denying the instincts of man, denies the same life. With this, he affirms that Socrates wanted to die, that is to say, he was already tired of life and it was not Athens who condemned him to death, but it was he who gave himself the hemlock. So, at the end of his life he recognized that the only doctor is death, and being sick for a long time, addressing it is the best option.
