It makes more sense when one considers that vampires are ontologically parasitic and aristocratic regardless of what they may have believed when they were alive, because of both their material interests being that they are super special treat lads whose treats are the literal lifeblood of others and the fact that they're literally animated by a sort of demon that's both demanding that they feed and kill and also subtly trying to twist them around to the point that they believe that's what they want to do anyways.

While that's true, I think that's part of the beauty of trying to play a high humanity character committed to helping both Kindred and Kine alike on any level. There's an inherent futility in it, especially as both kindred society as a whole and the beast within will gnaw at your scruples as you try to survive, and it will only get worse by the century if not decade or even year. On a broader social level, if you thought human society was mercilessly resistant against attempts to revolutionize it, the Elder Vampires will go above and beyond to crush any rowdy upstarts. And at the end of the day, you'll be a parasite at best, no matter how much you try to offset that.

But that doesn't matter. You are still fundamentally the same person as before the day you began your unlife, just trapped in your own reanimated corpse. You won't give into such excuses and will fight to the bitter end, even if its a fight you will most likely lose.

Or so my Bolshevik Brujah (a Latvian Red Rifleman who got turned in the civil war) tries to tell himself as he trudges through the bleak days, both for the kindred rabble and the human workers of the world.
