Or the liberal nations actually defended democracy and intervened against the fascists in Spain
They did intervene in Spain… to help the fascists. The US pressured Mexico to stop sending arms to Spanish anarchists, and Britain pressured France to stop sending arms to Spanish anarchists. Just liberals living up to their ideology, of course.
Don’t bother to try and debate the nuance of the geopolitical landscape with a bunch of neo-marxists who have gorged themselves on the “west is bad” coolaid.
It’s as pointless as arguing with neo-capitalists as to why regulation is both not the glove of communism, but also required for the healthy workings of a free market.
They are both extremists who only subscribe to a narrow binary view of the world, which fits their respective “ism”.
Uh huh.
And if, as a random example, Britain and France took their thumbs out of their asses and declared war over the demilitarization of the Rhineland?
Or the illegitimate annexation of Austria.
Or just told Hitler they would declare war over the Sudentenland
Or the liberal nations actually defended democracy and intervened against the fascists in Spain.
Or or or

Oh, look… a free-market cultist is pretending that capitalism isn’t one of the most extreme ideologies ever invented.
Yawn.
