    Uh… the liberal powers sided with Joseph Stalin to beat Mussolini and Hitler in the biggest war involving liberals, communists and fascists?

      Sure, eventually. And then only because their liberal order was directly attacked by fascism.

      But who capitulated within Germany? The liberal (small l) government gave Hitler a slap on the wrist, because they were more worried about socialists.

      Appreciate the input, this is actually a great discussion point.

        That’s not true, they ‘gave Hitler a slap on the wrist’ because just 20 years earlier they lived through a war that killed 11 million people and were psychologically unprepared for another one. And the liberal order wasn’t attacked by fascists at the outset really, Poland wasn’t part of it. In fact there wasn’t really a liberal order at all. It was ultimaty a matter of balance of power.
