That it most certainly did! Large, powerful socialist countries, that aren't particularly isolationist, certainly do that. After all, Western communist parties were a lot less useless when the Comintern was a thing. And while Lenin's predicted revolutionary wave or domino effect theory may have ended up dead in the water after the October Revolution, it's probably true that the more places we can make socialism happen in, the easier each further revolution will be to make happen.
