I'd say that part of the reason society has degenerated so far in recent decades is because people no longer police each other's behaviour.
The reason things like sexual deviancy, swearing, immodest dress, and disrespect for elders weren't tolerated in the past is because it would have been social suicide to publicly engage in any of those activities. That's not to say they didn't happen. They just happened behind closed doors; albeit to a lesser degree. only individuals of considerable wealth would have had the fuck you money to afford to public offend social standards and even they weren't entirely immune from consequences.
and due to guilt by association, the folks in your social network, even if they personally didn't care about the problematic behaviour, would have had a huge incentive to pressure you to keep it discreet or publicly distance themselves from you to maintain their reputations.
the left actually does this better than the right does ironically.
