This seems so massively self-centered to me. There is plenty of value to be found in the idea of sacrificing oneself for others or a greater cause.

If you think your death is the worst thing that could happen to you, you're not thinking big enough.

And what do you perceive the cause would be here, or that any sacrifice was achieve?

When World War 1 was happening, it was being actively deemed "The War To End All Wars." What could possibly be more noble? Of course in the end it not only failed to end war but set directly the stage for far deadlier conflicts shortly to come. It's all just so often utterly bizarre when you look at the big picture. A Bosnian Serb assassinates an Austro-Hungarian royal, and the next thing you know Brits and Germans are killing each other over it? Commoners nobly dying for noble's ignoble causes.

And now, over a 100 years later, the same underlying issues that led to the initial assassination still exist.

I think giving your life for something else is the only altruistic act.

But in general, I think there are almost zero situations where my death is worth more to others than my continued life. I don't live in a movie plot.

I, for one, will set about hunting the rich in their little bunkers for loot and sport.
