Because even though it really wasn't so much of an argument as it was Hux just dumping undesirable information on Poe, he still felt like there was a disconnect. He had left Poe emotionally sore and this was one area that Hux did not find gratification in. So he needed to feel Poe's warmth. Hux wanted public affection.
