Yes. yes you did.

I was asking a question of abolitionist who raised some very interesting points. It’s a question of whether people would *want* to keep people down in order to preserve the current system. Or whether the advocates would just let things keep going.

No, you suggested that Abolitionist would want to keep ‘people down,” not “people” in general. You were addressing Abolitionist directly, not some universal “people.” Look at your question again…

“Would you state it as a goal to keep some people down in order to preserve the status quo?”

Where is the universal “people” you claim you were addressing?
