Wrong. It only takes two people.
Yea, you try oppressing me, and see what happens
Your oppression of me would last about 5 seconds, and thats being generous. Oppression requires some form of power to legitimize it, be it physical, monetary or economic, or the use of state force. Society does not consist of abstract individuals competing with one another for dominion over one another's interests, it consists of CLASSES that have conflicting and irreconcilable interests - that is why the concept of the modern state was formed to begin with.
