It’s because leftists are small in numbers and are comprised of the marginalized. Liberals, being the effete cowards that they are, find it easier to pop off on us to blow some steam from getting their ass beat all day

Lmao they bad faith our criticisms so much it’s actually one of the strongest tells that the liberals hate the left more than the right.

They can look at a right winger who says really obviously wrong and hideous shit and point out why it is wrong, it makes them feel smart and moral. But a left winger makes arguments that they can't easily debunk or criticize, and this pushes them dangerously close to self-awareness, so they have to strawman and vilify leftists to protect their ego.
