The oppressor vs the oppressed

"The greatest weapon that an oppressor has is the minds of the oppressed."

~Nelson Mandela​

When a governmental power gains control over a group of people, and it begins treating these people unfairly and cynically, that government power becomes an oppressor and the people that government is oppressing becomes the oppressed. The actions, legislation and appearance of the oppressor affects, and arguably even controls the views of the oppressed people on the oppressor. In turn, this view that the oppressed has affects/controls the actions that the oppressed takes toward the oppressor (there being two main paths, cooperation and revolution). These actions that the oppressed take affect/control the actions of the oppressors, and thus a vicious cycle starts. The center of this cycle of actions and reactions between the oppressor and the oppressed is the perspective that the oppressed has of the oppressor, seeing as the oppressor (as a government power) will always take the actions that it deems necessary to retaliate to the actions of the oppressed. While the oppressed does the same thing, it is retaliating to the oppressor itself, not its actions as the oppressor does, and the oppressed profiles its oppressor through the actions that it takes. Keeping this information in mind, let's switch tracks for a second. With the passing of each generation, the history and events of that generation and the ones before it gradually are lost as some information is not shared with the next one for whatever reason. Outside of family bonds, the media corporations control most if not all of the exchange of information about past and present events, and the governments of the world have control over the media and what they can or cannot print. Inside family bonds, people are still bound by the rules and restrictions of the government that they are under, potentially making some information unsharable, and the growing technology base may have branches that none of us know about. By this logic, as generation passed on to generation in the world, the perspective of the oppressed parties would change as the oppressors made actions and as information was potentially lost about the oppressor in this "generation information loss." As information about the oppressor was taken away from the oppressed, the perspective of the oppressed would also change.If the oppressor makes the right movements and actions the oppressed, since they were born into this oppression, would have nothing to compare it to and would see this oppression as "normal" and not see their oppressors as oppressors.By this logic any government on earth including the US national government could potentially be a oppressing party, and that population, would have no idea at all.
