It seems to work just fine for the right, so I'm not sure why there's a double standard on the left. The truth is, it's not really a problem for most people. They just use it and any other excuse they can to justify voting against the left party or leftist politicians. This is often because they support racist, misogynistic, or authoritarian ideas that sound bad when said out loud. So instead, they look for reasons to say the other person is bad and can't be voted for.
I expect some people will respond by trying to point out how bad the left is over the right for some reason, which only ends up proving my point. It's likely that anyone who does this is just trying to deflect from their own side's issues rather than addressing the real problems.
Edit just to add: Saying the left is bad is one thing, saying they are worse than the right or shit only smells when they do it is just ludicrous...
