Not really. The satanic aesthetic is more decoration and vibes for ritualized atheism.
There are multiple schools of Satanic worship but they all are pretty explicit in divorcing themselves from Christian lore and dogma. It’s not just “choosing the other side”, it’s an actually separate religion. There’s a political side too, but that’s even more optional.

You’re mixing up satanists and Satan worshippers. Satanists are indeed atheists taking a piss on christians

My mistake. Sometimes I wish they chose more distinct names

Then they wouldn’t be called “Satan worshippers” now, would they?

That’s part of the game. They’re reveling in the pearl clutching that claiming to literally worship Satan causes. The actual focus of their worship is more a philosophical ideal of the self and spiritual independence.
The new Satanic Temple reveres a wider pantheon of pagan dieties that the Christians all called Satan but had their own individual cults. It’s more of a safe place for them to practice their own faiths while in community with eachother.

That is not correct

Christians are the only ones that believe in Satan.
No, satanists do not believe in Satan.

Islam and Judaism believe in the same old testament so there’s two other possibilities.

There are unfortunately a number of satanist neo-nazi groups such as:
Temple of Zeus (aka joy of satan ministries)
Turku society for the spiritual sciences
I think the reason for this is that Nazis like to infiltrate edgy groups and turn them into Nazis I think edgy teenagers are an easy target to turn into Nazis. After all what is edgier than being a Nazi?
This was explicitly done by joy of Satan ministries on their website they had a “teens for satan” section
There is also an association between black metal and Nazis which is also associated with satanism
Check on the edgy teenagers In your life to try to make sure they don’t fall into this trap.

Sorry that was not my intention I don’t think most satanists are Nazis and I am a fan of black metal myself.

Sweet, now I can make sure to only listen the prue white kind of black metal! /sarcasm
I checked my bands I listen occasionally, and the worst one was orange. (Kanonenfiber) Which is the only band I ever raised the question that it is okey to listen. It was shocking when I went into a concert (for a different band), and steped into the hall: The band was masked in full WWI uniforms and and the singer just raised his hand 😅. I was stunned. I pretty much enjoy their music, and later checked their background.
But, I don’t see why we can’t enjoy any type of medium which is created by shitty ppl. Aside from supporting and associating with ppl who share their shitty views ofc. At least this list is not black&white.

I believe this is referring to specific extremely deplorable organizations such as 764
MASSIVE trigger warning as these groups commit the worst acts of depravity and cruelty that humans are capable of.

Thanks for the info. I began reading through it.
CVLT was created somewhere in 2019 by a then 23-year old top business school student named Rohan Rane, an Indian immigrant living in Antibes, France.
…
While in custody, Rohan described himself as a “psychopath devoid of any emotion”, he said that he is interested in Fascism and Aryan Brotherhood.
What a stupid shit. Imagine a brown immigrant that believes in white pride and fascism.

I agree that far right is mostly christian, but if I see a shirt with a sunwheel and totenkopf like that, I’m expecting a (National Socialist) Black Metal fan (therefore a big chance of being satanist)

Now hear me out. What if their god is actually Satan?

This feels like the guy is being more honest with himself and his love of the antichrist.
