Huh? Surely, by the definition of "oppress", A can oppress B only if A is in the wrong. Who would ever say things like "the Israelis are oppressing the Palestinians, and they are right to do so"?
Would you object to "The police oppresses rapists and murderers" on the ground that it's factually incorrect? Or just that it's a very weird thing of framing things, with misleading connotations?
