Maybe it's foreign to us because we have the luxury of having it be foreign to us. Self sacrifice is something we're capable of. But few people will choose it if other alternatives are available.

Yet I will grant you that we tend to think more in terms of individual rights and freedoms and less in terms of communal wellbeing. Which is neither right nor wrong in itself, and we should respect other peoples' different choices.

But again, that's the point, right?
