There's a few things. I believe if you're not okay with your life, it can feel good having power even if you don't have money, it gives some semblance of control. I don't think these people believe in the ideology of Nazism per se but I believe that whatever went on in their lives is enough to feed their delusions of false security.
Belonging to a special group makes you feel wanted even if you're being used.
Some of these people have been disenfranchised and they most likely have personal issues. It sometimes feels good to let people manipulate your emotions so you don't have to take responsibility for your actions.

@SatanBurger I agree.. It may not be so for all for followers, but such dogmas do attract many who feel as you describe.

@SatanBurger Oddly enough, an Indiana Jones video game summed it up best, when the lead Nazi villain said:
Nothing is quite so easy to manipulate as an insecure male.

@SW-User Even though that may have been a line in a work of fiction, it is sadly so true.
