It's not that F is converted to a loyal Republican, it's that she
finds a place within Cointelpro to express her nature and find that
thrill.
Just as within the antiwar protest movement she found a place to
utilize her filmic talents.

It's not that Z believes abstractly in, well, anything...he just
registers experiences as pleasant and seeks to repeat and intensify
them...including his love"

Maybe, "the personal is political" here so when the personal is betrayed,
the political is now a zombie on one's back. The establishment gives Frenesi
