Also, I have never heard of “Bloc” being used to describe any alliance that was good or positive.
The Our Ukraine Bloc in the Orange Revolution was generally good and positive.
In the Manix and later Doomlord series in the 1980’s British comic Eagle there was a terrorist organisation bent on world domination which went under the acronym of SMOG…Society for the Militant Overthrow of all Governments.

In the TSR reboot of Buck Rogers the good guys were called NEO (New Earth Organization) and the bad guys were called RAM (Russo American Mercantile). RAM was an Evil Corporation that controlled Mars…in fact “Corporation” is probably a good entry for this list. They are always evil in stories.
“Covenant” really got it’s foot in the “bad guy” door, this generation.
Actually, MOST names with a religious connotation end up being “bad guy” organizations, I think, with the exception being groups that hunt vampires. (I don’t pity the poor guys just trying to run the Counter Vampire Islamic Jihad Brigade. “Please, I swear, we’re not terrorists—we only hunt undead! Vampires and zombies! Most of us are Sufis!”)
For a more specific (and personal favorite) example, there’s the name of the conspiratorial supervillain organization from the cartoon “Young Justice”…which called itself “The Light.” (Everyone’s the hero of their own story, right? 
)
Plus, it’s an allusion to another secret society…
Wait, Enforcement and Logistics are in the same division? I’m trying hard to think of two more dissimilar functions to group together. Government Liaison and Applied Research maybe?
I can only assume there’s also a Secure Homeland Initiative, Animals Drawn With a Camelhair Brush Division, and a Secure Homeland Initiative, Activities included in this Division Division.
Like Agent Ward said, someone really wanted their initials to spell “Shield”.
Star Control 3 gave us The Hegemonic Crux–they were pretty much dicks, predictably.
In the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers underground comics “Idiots Abroad” series, the International Brotherhood of Colonels mounts a global military coup. Why they didn’t all then promote themselves to generals or marshals is never explained; maybe they just didn’t want to pay for new business cards.
I have no hesitation in calling SMERSH the bad guys, and they certainly were as fictionalized in Ian Fleming’s James Bond books (including Live and Let Die, which I’m reading now): SMERSH - Wikipedia
In the early comic strips, the basic political unit was the Organization, or “Org”. States and provinces had been replaced by “orgzones”, and North America was governed by the “Orgzone Federation”. The bad guys, the Red Mongols, were ruled by an emperor, so they were presumably an Empire.
There’s also the Coalition to Liberate Itinerant Tree-dwellers, plus Liberate Apes Before Imprisoning Apes.

Are they allied with The Committee for the Liberation and Integration of Terrifying Organisms and their Rehabilitation Into Society?
I heard they’re bitter rivals with the Pan-Human Alliance for Liberty, Logistics and Ultimate Supremacy.
This is why I think the SD needs a ‘like’ system, I’ve nothing really to add to this comment but it needs to be appreciated.
