The left is literally eating itself at this point.

I don't get this criticism. The alternative is a "unity for unity's sake" that buries very real differences and complaints. The alternative is looking like Paul Ryan pretending to love Trump.

I think Republicans, and Conservatives in general, are more inclined to set differences aside for the pursuit of common goals. You can get non-racist conservatives working together with ethnic nationalists if it means they get tax cuts, for example, passed, because Conservatives care more about getting their goals accomplished more than whether or not some of the people they work with are racist. The differences aren't as important as the commonality.

You don't hear as much about the Right eating itself because of this, where you might see people on the Left sabotaging their common causes by engaging in call out culture, and that sort of thing, against their own.

You might knock unity, but that kind of party cohesion can get things done or, conversely, prevent your opponents from getting things done.
