Strange, I didn't know morals gave a damn about class.
Not murdering, raping, killing, enslaving or stealing from your neighbors isn't alterable as far as class goes. Regardless of what fictional division you are in not doing any of those is just logical behavior.
Society is the voluntary cooperation of individuals built on trust, if you can not trust your neighbor not to try killing you then are you not going to either A. Avoid your neighbor, or B. Kill them first?
One only needs to take a look at the Middle East to see an example of where "society" has broken down as a result of the breaking of morality by either Nations (US Invasion of Iraq) or amongst Ethnicities (Iraqi Genocide of the Kurds, Iraq - Iran War, Judeo-Muslim Wars, Crusades.)
The entire history of that one region is filled with examples of what happens when people (either at the individual level) or people (at a group level) feel that they can not trust their neighbor not to try killing, raping, murdering, enslaving or stealing from them.
