Because it is.

I fold this hand preflop most of the time, unless the table has played VERY TIGHT. Another reason I don't raise is you have small stacks who will be looking for any 2 cards to push with behind you and the bb is a big stack.

Looks like those short stacks shoved and you're getting a decent price. This is why I don't raise with hands like this oop. You got yourself pot committed and I think have to call.
