Summary

This quote suggests that there are individuals who claim to be against oppression, yet paradoxically engage in oppressive behaviors themselves. It highlights the subtle hypocrisy that exists within a portion of society. It implies that some people may not genuinely value freedom and equality, but rather use the language of anti-oppression as a faÃ§ade to justify their own oppressive actions. The quote serves as a cautionary reminder that the fight against oppression requires self-reflection and vigilance against the possibility of becoming what we claim to oppose.
