Oppression takes on many faces, are you so sure we haven't been living with some level of oppression in the US that everyone is okay with because it's all we know? Would you consider income taxes oppression? Or maybe mandatory schooling? What about universal surveillance? Mandatory vaccinations? By no means am I likening the US today to the many examples of much worse oppression, but oppression is a spectrum and ultimately defined by the individual who either does or does not feel oppressed.
