Its really too bad the soviet union didnt last long enough that it couldve been around while the empire is in full decline. At the same time, maybe this decline wouldnt have happened had it been around.
I do think that the fall of USSR accelerated the process significantly. Had USSR managed to course correct the way China did, I think the west would’ve still ended up in a crisis in the long term, but could’ve been many decades from now.

I largely agree, the west achieved a Pyrrhic victory over the Soviet Union.
