Corruption, etc.

For the benefit of everyone, I'll quote part of your post really quick:
"... but when you force your opinions on other people..." It's very
fitting that you make our own point for us, but if you still don't
follow, I'll elaborate. The wonderful thing about every individual is
that we are given agency (granted, Vampires have their agency taken
away, but I'm not going to bring that up simply for the sake of
argument). We cannot force anyone to do anything. Anything that anyone
chooses to do, they do of their own free will (or that of their sire, as
the case may be).

I think I posted this previously, in fact. When your lifestyle conflicts
with mine and takes away at least part of my security, or the security
of those I care about, I'm encouraged to help you adjust it. Does that
mean you have to take my promptings the way I would like? I think not.
To be truthful, I wouldn't have it any other way; The ability to choose
is what makes us all individuals. You and I, and everyone else for that
matter, can continue doing exactly as we would like to. However, to be
highly cliche and quote an old adage, "If you play with fire, you're
going to get burned."
