Answer:

C. El Salvador’s government disregarded human rights.

Step-by-step explanation:

The main reason for the American support to the Salvadorian Government being seen wrong was that the Salvadorian Government was too cruel and many of the attrocities committed by the Salvadorian Government were brought to light and this made for the public to strongly critize the help and aid that the American Government was giving to the Salvadorian government that wasn´t respecting human rights of its citizens.
