It's a meme
Stable Diffusion, instead of doing fun shit like replicating the art style of things created by teams of people (as had been done with Craiyon and Looking Glass), or even merging two or more art styles together, has been about replacing artists since it was unveiled.
People weren't taking artist's work and passing it off as their own with DALL-E 2 or Looking Glass, what the fuck makes Stable Diffusion so different?
The diffusion? CLIP Guided Diffusion had that too, and that didn't bring out the dredges of Twitter.
