Nah, you're moving goalposts.

First using the images is thievery. Then it's either not thievery and no big deal or thievery that is somehow not wrong, depending on how minor it is?

I agree that popular accounts dedicated to ripping off smaller creators are thieves. But they are thieves because they are almost always monetized in some shape or form, or are doing it for "payment" of hits to their site and personal popularity and influence, or are - officially or secretly - working for the site itself to generate traffic, so they are thieves profiting off of other people's work without permission, by both my standards are yours.

But, without some sort of huge leap of logic to try and accommodate your extreme scenario, that's not something I would call merely some fans "reposting fanart without credit."

Fair enough.
