There is the altruism of co-operation and helpfulness and their is the altruism of self sacrifice and abnegation. Think of Mother Terressa, the Queen Witch b***h of the self destructive altruists.

Both are valid and real according to the inclinations of individuals and borne of circumstance and culture.

For example the Russian peasants that tore down the Tsars were naturally inclined toward syndicalism and not socialism, likewise the Spanish during the days of the Republic destroyed by Franco.
The Anglo Saxon workers of Britain and Germany however have a greater inclination to solid ordered structures and tend toward socialistic thinking.
Modern North Americans tend toward a much more individualistic culture.
