They don't care about decency. I'm serious, they don't.
Jonathan Haidt's Moral Foundation Theory work showed that. Of the 5-6 foundations (care/harm, fairness/cheating, loyalty/betrayal, authority/subversion, sanctity/degradation as the originals, and adding in liberty/oppression more recently), moderates and Conservatives will use all of them (to varying degrees) but the modern-day left does not care about any except care/harm and fairness/cheating. Call it whatever you want, purity, decency, sanctity, whatever. It does not factor in the worldview of the modern left to any significant degree.
