Yeah. I can almost imagine a situation where the members of a union have to organize a union.
Your second point is good, also. I need to work on trying to remember that empires happen because there is complicity at many levels, and not just imposition of evil from the top.
I also need to work on a thought I had while commuting home, about how "social edifices" are really the problem. I mean, a solution is presented to a problem where a social edifice of some kind is causing trouble. Then that solution becomes an institution itself, and goes slowly over time from being solution to being problem. I think the "Critical" school did some work on this problem.
