Politically, in the mid-1920s, Hübner caught up with the extreme political right in the Weimar Republic . From 1925 to 1927 he was a member of the Wiking Association .

On December 1, 1928, Hübner joined the NSDAP (membership number 105.735). As early as August 1, 1928, he had joined the Berlin section of the Sturmabteilung (SA). In the years that followed, Hübner became known in Nazi circles under the nickname "Naute". In this he was initially assigned to SA-Sturm 25 in Neukölln. From August 1, 1928 to September 15, 1931 he was used as a troop leader (1930) and later as a storm leader in this storm.

After he initially held this post in the form of an "m. D. F. b." Position, he was finally appointed to him on a regular basis after a period of probation. In this position he was eventually promoted to SA Oberführer.
