As the modern world is totally captured by vampiric, self-serving Saturnian systems that are the inversion of the natural order so that's likely resonating with creators and readers on that social commentary level.
Then there's the horror element that people really can get away with evil if it's endorsed by cosmic forces. Like in JJK there's uncomfortable themes of familial sacrifice with Sukuna, Yuji, Maki, and various implicit endorsements of cannibalism in general whether literal or 'essential'.
On another basic level people hate to recognize that playing fair is harder than cheating which esoteric themes often play into with people upjumping their peers with methods abhorrent. Again looping back into social commentary.

At least when it comes to Saturn eating his children it is because that picture is a spooky meme due to its nature.

Saturn is the god of a thousand faces a s he is always death, time, and the more brutal side of fertility deities.
