When you put it like, that, that sounds like exactly what they'd want off the coast of Venezuela right now.

For sure. They shouldn't have blown up the other boats either, but spilling the oil into the sea would certainly have been bad.
Huh, I wonder why they seized it instead of shooting it like the others? It couldn't possibly be for the oil, right?
Karma on reddit tracks the accumulated likes and dislikes a user has gotten on all of their posts. Lemmy does not have a number like that.
Edit: What this means in practice is that on Reddit there are some users who make a lot of low-effort posts to get that karma number to go up and get a sense of accomplishment from that (even when they get a negative reputation among the other users), whereas on Lemmy that's not really a thing. Lemmy has power-users that become well-known, but they're more well-liked because they aim to gain actual reputation instead of just farming a karma number.
Just say ruling class or owner class. It's easier for you to spell and easier for the average reader to understand (and accept, if they've been subjected to anti-communist propaganda).
