you will see this a lot on pokerstars.

people are going all-in with flush-draws the whole time in these limits.
unfortunately pokerstars supports such a stupid play and i lose regularly with my sets/2pair etc against these guys.

That's an interesting comment. Are you suggesting that Poker Stars is in some way rigged to favor these plays?

And why is pushing with draws a bad play?

It isn't, but in this case it was. It depends on stack sizes, quality of your draw, action, etc. In this particular case, villain had a flush draw+2 possible live overs, but OP made it clear he likes the board and isn't folding. When villain pushes, OP gets a 3:1 call so there is no fold equity and a decent chance Hero holds more than an overpair (a set, pair+NFD, higher overs with flushdraw, etc), making the odds to draw worse.
