Purity thing?

The moral foundation associated with sanctity & purity & banning the degrading & disgusting is supposed to be very much on the conservative side and underlie seemingly inexplicable moral stances against things like homosexuality which harms no-one. Personal disgust moralised.

However, we see a lot of purity demands and puritanism on the left at the moment too and expressions of disgust for certain views and behaviours which aren't actually harmful.
