I think it’s hard to predict as these all have effects on each other. Like the USA could have continued social democratic reforms to appease it’s strong labor whole snatching up European colonies in Asia and South America to subsidize the core.

And an anglo alliance might consider Europe lost and pivot to cementing their grip in South Asia and Southern Africa etc

The weird outcome is I think Imperial Japan would probably have at a minium a non aggression pact with Europe and possibly an alliance. Which is an enormous contradiction of Idealogy versus realpolitik. Possibly leading to an Anglo or US aligned Nationalist China movement etc

I think there would have been a WW2 it just would have been communist continental Europe versus the UK/Commonwealth-USA alliance maybe with Imperial Japan as a wild card.

Still probably a better timeline but uncertain.
