I guess what I was thinking of is more like someone saying "As a ____ we're so oppressed because someone keyed my car" Yeah, that's a shitty thing to do to anyone. But I wouldn't call a group oppressed because one person keyed someone's car.

Well no, that would be backwards. A more realistic application there would be "my car was keyed because I'm a member of x group," in other words being a member of an oppressed group has made them a target for something bad.

The fact that other people in the oppressed group have been targeted in other ways doesn't mean that the car keying is irrelevant just because it's not the thing that happens most often.

(And of course just the fact that it happened to a member of an oppressed group doesn't prove that was the cause why it happened either, so anyone with any sense will look at the context of the situation before simply claiming causality.)
