Ozpin is the one with all the knowledge, and he's also the immortal one with thousands of years of memories and the magic time stopping cane. He's in charge. The entire team exists to fulfill his goals of establishing control over Remnant to usher in peace and cooperation. Unfortunately for the people of Remnant this means secrecy and authoritarianism in many places. This is why someone like Cinder would feel he is oppressive and tyrannical and would be approached by his archenemy, who converts her into a henchman for her.

I don't see how you can infer stuff that isn't stated or confirmed anywhere. Nobody has ever said anything in any canon material about Salem's goal being genocide. The character with that motive is Adam (it used to just be revolution, like Cinder, but after Blake left him he went insane and in V3E11 he declares his desire to punish humanity by slaughtering them). I think you're confusing Adam with Salem. Adam is cooperating with them out of a desire for resources to achieve his goals, but that's it. Cinder bribed him and threatened to kill more of his men if he didn't work with her faction.
