Because if you don't care they get offended.

The irony is that these platforms never did bother to moderate. I'll occasionally flag some comments that are very obvious hate speech and the response is always "we found nothing wrong".

I've given up flagging misinformation on FB. They don't even give you a clear option for it except for very specific categories.
