The sexual revolution replaced rules about sex with feelings ("if it feels good, do it", and "the only things that matters is if you love each other").
From the idols (midrash, but still...) to Moses to Mordecai, not to mention actual historical events, it can be argued that Judaism is founded on antinomianism.

What?? Judaism is founded on the Torah (Law).
You could say Reform and Conservative are anti-nomian, trying to follow the spirit rather than letter of the law.
Of course, Torah, however interpreted. But I'm not playing Jewish theology here. I'm talking about how Jews, from Abraham on, have responded to power.
Yes, Jews have a long and honorable history of resisting human authority and government law when it conflicts with God's law.
If you publish your Harvard syllabus, I’ll do the homework. This is good stuff.
