Is that really your takeaway from WW1 and how we got to WW2?

No, that would be a gross simplification.
But the armistice inadvertently created the "stab in the back" myth which fueled resentment and the National-Socialists, and the Peace Treaty added fuel to the fire. Many Germans legitimately thought they could have won the war if it wasn't for political treachery.
During WW2 the allies decided the Axis nations should undergo total regime change, and being military stomped meant radicals wouldn't have the "we weren't really defeated, our government betrayed us and surrendered while we could still fight" excuse in the post-war.
