Fundamentally, it's because they lean authoritarian, and authoritarians can't see why a more libertarian or chaotic system wouldn't just die.
Chaos begets order. Order begets chaos. Prolonged chaos generates new order. That's the benefit. The American people have probably endured the most prolonged assault by Leftism that has ever existed in the world. Liberal societies bend, but they do not break. This is the kind of thing that I talk about when I speak of a kind of Honey-comb defensive structure. You lose bits of ground (each comb) but the integrity of the structure is still generally solid.
Compare that to authoritarian systems. They are actually fragile. The breaking point is just much highers. When Franco died, Spain became a Leftist hell-hole. After the Argentinian Junta fell, it became a Leftist hell-hole. When Pinochet died, it became a Leftist shit-hole (one of the least bad ones, but a shithole none the less). The Chileans actually fought off another attempt by the Left to create a new constitution. They bend to a very small degree, and then completely shatter.
The value of Liberalism is how hard it is to actually break it because it bends so far, and is far more likely to simply bounce back. We can talk about Yuri Bezminov all the time, but fundamentally, he was wrong: The Soviet Union died before America could be conquered by Communists. It's under a new threat from a new regime, as well as it's older Fabian threat, but she's still bending around the pressure and pushing back. In fact, we're one of the only western nations that's actually pushing back. France is too, but the situation in France is far more serious than ours.
