Because what a lot of people think of as the deep, dark, grimy internet is how people talk in real life. The phenomena of the internet being a clean place where you don't say slurs only happened as a result of advertising on social media platforms. The argument about what way should we let the internet "be" is completely orthogonal to the matter, no one is suggesting people to go out of their way to be dirty, just let people have conversations the way they do outside the internet.
