Nazi Germany helped the Spanish fascists and Franco's rule even continued after Hitler's fall. And the big threat after fascism threatened the freedom of the world? The communists that did most of the hard work and dying to defeat fascism.

The crisis of legitimacy would have come from the ruling classes of the world feeling threatened by the change in social order, not because aid was given to a side in an internal conflict.

If your countrymen are trying to kill you and foreigners who support your position help you defeat them, people who complain about who helped get it done are just more supporters of that defeated side trying to play victim and position for their next run for power.
