That's great, but liberalism as an ideology in the real world is pathetically weak on the right.

Yeah, the Liberals only destroyed the Nazis and Imperial Japan in WWII, saving the USSR in the process.

Not to mention jailing far right nutballs whenever they step out of line.

Much worse than running gulags for anarchists. /s

The USSR did 90% of the work in beating the Nazis though. As for jailing the far right, it sure doesn't look like it, just look how many of them are running around encouraging stochastic terrorism against the LGBT community.

The USSR only fought the Nazis, and then only after allying with them.

The west also did a ton of non-aggression pacts and friendship pacts with the Nazis. Also; Poland was fascist at the time too.

Poland was not in a good place politically, but it wasn't Fascist, and the USSR didn't just make a friendship pact with the Nazis, it went to war alongside them. Stalin was an opportunist who made a dumb decision, not a principled anti-Fascist.
