Is there any connection between the decolonialisation that rapidly started after WWII and the Cold War (more precisely, the proxy wars during the CW)? If not, what was the reason as to why the decolonialisation was initiated just after the WWII?

I've read a lot and info says the superpowers were impoverished after the losses of the war and could no longer sustain the uprisings in the colonies. But I am thinking there has to be MORE additional (more complex) factors than just the economical aspect as to why the decolonialisation escalate just shortly after WWII.

Ive a theory: could it be that the proxy wars during the CW "inspired" the colonies to start revolting? Communists bashing the capitalists in colonies held by the capitalists, telling them they should stand up for their rights and try to set free, and vice versa? I've tried to google some info to back up my thesis but without any success. I googled terms such as "proxy war effect on decolonialisation", "cold war and decolonialisation connections" etc.

Any insight would be appreciated.
