A lot of them are just doing it for money and a sense of purpose... like most jobs.
Brown shirts? Not so much, you swore to an ideology of you did it for money or just makes you selfish, hateful and greedy and I'm not actually sure that's better.
Ideology is a sense of purpose. Most human beings are selfish, hateful, and greedy. Regardless of their politics.
Yeah neat, the ideology in this case was authoritarianism and racism. You sign on to that when you swear to it, excuses are kinda useless at that point.
Everything about everything that all of them are doing screams "shame". The thing people say they don't have.
