Why do some people use online dating platforms to insult others? (Page 2)

Question

I joined an online dating site recently. Used some of my best photos which are good quality photos I used on my professional camera, but since I’ve been on it (only a week) I’ve had to close my profile because I matched with a man and all he did was insult me from the get-go. The first message he sent me he called me a clout chaser (no idea what that meant so I had to look it up) and it means someone who is obsessed with gaining status and popularity which I’m not trying to do, I’m just on the dating site to date people and find someone I want to be with. Then when I challenged him on that he said that I am insecure and use filters in my photos, that I look like a tranny, and said that no wonder I am single at 28 years old because no one would want me. I looked at his photos and he looked very unhappy. There was one mirror selfie where he wasn’t even smiling so I don’t know why he felt room to insult me or my photos. Why did he match with me just to insult me?
