Yeah but this is different, that's all geopolitics. The cold war was more about economic systems, which capitalism has undoubtedly come out on top of.
I have to disagree, I'd say the main focus of the cold war was influence. You don't build a huge military to show others that your economic system is better, you do it to have more influence.
Why would you even care which economic system others use? It's better for you when other countries are economically weaker, so it's better when they use an economic system of which you think it's inferior.
