The same way members of the Church of Satan are Satanists. What your probably thinking of is Devil Worship which is different. You can actually go to either of these organizations websites and they should be able to give you a good overview.
Like another comment said, your best source is going to be their own websites. But from an outsider’s perspective, their motive seems to be taking the good ideas from the Abrahamic religions (love your neighbor, do unto others as you would have them do unto you, etc) and replacing some of their worse tendencies (close-minded devotion to YOUR interpretation of God and anything less will send you to Hell) with their polar opposites: “Beliefs should conform to one’s best scientific understanding of the world” (Tenet V from The Satanic Temple’s website)
The Satanic Temple does not worship Satan so how are they satanists?

Why do these organizations exist?
I don’t know about the Church of Satan, but the TST exists to mock religion, expose the hypocrisies of the religious, and promote human rights.
From their tenants, they exist for a bit more than that. Their tenants are all about self empowerment.
Because they piss off the snowflakes
Why does any club exist?
I don’t have anything against it, just wondering about their motives.
