Ant IPO debacle shows me that the rich and powerful, in the capitalism sense, are incredibly consistent in their thinking; even the one raised up in a communist totalitarian country.

They simply cannot think from any other perspectives that can reveal their fundamental flaws.

Unlike communism authoritarian, who at least can admit the effectiveness of capitalism in mobilizing the society in economy activity.

Ultimately, I think this is a case of the incentive structure and material reality of those people shaping their worldviews and actions.

This shared environment lead them to a worldview where myopic self-interest is the only thing that matters.

In other words, I think the shared material environment dominates culture and upbringing, and leads to transcultural trends here.
