No. The USSR was enemy number 1 of the capitalist global elites. And it did its job very well. We needed it to be that. Yes it eventually fell but in the decades it did exist it did the important work of countering US hegemony, and preparing the global south for the conflict we are facing now. Without the USSR the world would look so much different today. China wouldnt exist in its current form, the DPRK wouldnt exist, etc.

Socialism with Chinese Characteristics was not just an economic plan to increase foreign investment. Yes it did that but it also made the US largely leave China alone. Now the US hates China because its realized its mistake but for a long time it ignored China. Assumed China was going to come around and go full neolib. It didnt. It never intended to. China just needed time. The USSR got it off the ground and SWCC bought it the time it needed to get ready to face the US.

The torch was passed from the USSR to China, and now China along with other nations opposed to the US carry on the legacy of resistance left by the USSR. Back after WW2 only the USSR had the means to do that. Even if it had successfully convinced America to back off by pretending to be open to markets the rest of the world would have suffered for the lack of intervenion by the USSR. America would have been able to use the post-ww2 chaos to entrench itself globally and turn pretty much every global south nation into a puppet. Imagine a world where China was just like Japan. (Barf). Thats what itd be like.

So in short. The fall of the USSR was a tragedy yes, but despite its fall the effect it had on the world was immense and at a time where it was very much needed. The USSR took a bullet for all of us, and gave the world a fighting chance. Without its sacrifice we would be looking at maybe an extra 200-500 years of US Empire domination of the world.
