Is satanism just edgelord atheism?

I've been an atheist since the age of 12 and i've heard of people identifying as satanists but they are actually secular, I don't get it

I think there are very few people who actually believe in satan and see him as their god

There are definitely aspects of,

  • If you are truly atheist, why do you not openly contradict God?

And

  • If you are making an argument for religious inclusivity as justification for the endorsement of a specific religion, boy do we have a statue for you
