Even undead immortals need to read theory, it seems smh
🧛♀️ 
Game is Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines btw. Great game if very early 2000s (in ways both good and very, very bad)

I always figured vampires would inherently move in socialist directions out of the pursuit of long-term sustainability and stability.
The whole “let’s sack the castle and stake the local undead since he’s the cause of all the malaise” trope seems like typical blame-the-other scapegoating you see in an economic crisis. Nobody’s suggesting it’s the guy who dammed and rerouted the local river to run his mill for commercial gain that’s causing your crops to wither, or the landowner demanding an ever larger cut of the harvest-- it’s clearly nosferatu magic.
I remember getting into an interesting conversation with a friend about True Blood in how any vampire/human who genuinely wants to make the world suitable for coexistence would recognize capitalism and class society as major obstacles to it. Especially when you factor in just how much having immortal consumers/producers who can accumulate a literal treasure hoard of wealth over their unlife would fuck with the current system.
Now if only True Blood actually put that level of thought into the world-building…
