I think that Brutus does not want the conspirators to swear an oath of allegiance, because as i said earlier, he likes to think of himself being better and nobler than the rest of the conspirators and he is not just part of the gang, but if he takes the oath he will be lowering himself to their level. He might also want to think that they do not need an oath to stay true to their word that they will kill Caesar for the good of Rome. Also if they don’t have the motives to do it whats the point, he says that in act 2,1 “If these be motives weak, break off betimes.” he might also be disagreeing because it was Cassius who suggested an oath and Cassius is currently the leader of the conspiracy however Brutus want to be so to show that he purposefully disagrees with all of Cassius’s propositions, such as keeping Anthony alive even though it was a bad decision. “For Antony is but a limb of Caesar.” Brutus says this when he just joined the conspirators and they were discussing things such as taking an oath, letting Anthony join, etc.

I also have some quotes directly from the play to back up my reasoning, one of which is “Not that I love Caesar less but that I loved Rome more.” This is basically saying that Brutus did not kill caesar out of hatred or anger, but instead out of his nobility and loyalty to the city of Rome, suggesting that he would do nearly anything for the city, even killing his best friend, Ceaser.
