Exactly. There are some terms that where we should be a little more strict about their usage, (especially if they're being watered down to serve capital), but terms like surplus-value-extraction, imperialism, colonialism, theft, are applicable to pretty much every class-based mode of production.
I don't listen to podcasts so I don't know what sparked this post, but I don't see why anyone would get mad about the general / colloqial usage of the term imperialism.
