Probably because it's US who are growing, and I doubt weeds or cancer cells would think of themselves in a negative light (if they can think at all) or that they're doing anything wrong. In those instances growth is what keeps the species alive and evolving, until something better happens. Sadly we're not much different.
Great point, however! +1!
