I thought that the "tools of oppression and domination" was a reference to how stereotypes are used, not how they are formed.

If you are into that kind of thing, you can view stereotypes as soldiers in memetic warfare. If you want to win, you want to shape your soldiers and not just pick whichever ones happen to come along.
