The western powers were far more anti-communist than they were anti-fascist. Not everyone knows that they directly intervened in the Russian civil war years before the rise of Nazism to try and topple the new Bolshevik government.

WW2 was just a temporary pause while both sides dealt with Germany.

The Allies of WW2 were more a "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" kind of deal. That's why the alliance started to fall apart the moment the common enemies were close to being defeated.
