Bandwraith quotes Polyani and writes:

"moral inversion," in that there seems to be
no justification required- i.e., your society is corrupt
and decadent, so therefore, anything goes, any-
thing is justified to bring it down- the dismissal of all
"bourgeois" values, checks and balances, etc. For
Frenesi it's a more honest than that, no need for
rationalizations or appeals to secularized religion,
just her own personal aesthetic.

Great Ob and context, imho.......
A-and reminds me of that phrase, "the personal is the political" [for Frenesi]
