The masters never cares about the people. Putin still lives the same way he did before in his palace.
Russia will most likely not collapse (as in “total chaos”) as long as China, India, Brasil and other countries support them in their colonization efforts.
But it will bring them down on their knees and it will, if the West somehow is able to deliver ammunition etc, force Russia to end their war in Ukraine.
I’m not optimistic, especially not since the Americans are about to vote for the Russian asset in the upcoming election, but hope is the last thing that leaves you…
