They change beliefs and move goalposts at will, based on feelings, so of course they aren't guided by solid principles. How else do you go from trying to regulate the size of Big Gulps at convenience stores to proclaiming that fat is beautiful, and "people of size" have special privileges? How else do you explain the claim that race is just a construct while also claiming racism is everywhere, suffusing everything? How else do you go from defending women to allowing biological men to erase women's achievements in their own sports? If there's one thing that's consistent about leftists, though, it's that they love to meddle.*

*Oh, to be sure, the right does this, too. How else do you explain the contradiction of supposed rightie anti-statism and the urge to create a constitutional amendment defining marriage as only between one man and one woman? If the right took its own principles seriously, I'd have more respect for it.
