The future Sturmabteilung gained more members by organizing pub fighters and ex-soldiers who protected the SA from protests from Social Democrats and Communists. In the late 1920s, Germany was suffering an economic crisis, and the SA recruited primarily form the unemployed or what Marx would call the [[lumpenproletariat]] of Germany. Left-wingers and socialists allege the SA gained from a propensity for the unemployed to be bribed from those who are hostile to working people and left-wing politics in general. | The future Sturmabteilung gained more members by organizing pub fighters and ex-soldiers who protected the SA from protests from Social Democrats and Communists.

Around the time of the "Unite the Right" rally in the USA in 2017, and the emergence of the proudboys in 2017, some left-wing commentators noted that they thought they drew resemblence to the old German Sturmabteilung. | Around the time of the "Unite the Right" rally in the USA in 2017, and the emergence of the proudboys in 2017, some left-wing commentators noted that they thought they drew resemblence to the old German Sturmabteilung. Furthermore, these same left-wing commentators said that their drive to join far-right groups was due to being, among other things [[incel]]. The reasons given for incels joining right-wing movements were varied. [[Angela Nagle]], being the only person to write a book about [[4chan]], said this was mainly due to incels wanting to become paraphrased "masters of cruel hierarchies which oppress them". Other more tabloidy left-wing authors, asserted that incels were drawn to the far-right because of some congenital lack of moral character associated with hating women or some dumb shit like that. | ||
