It's hard to make an effort when all your energy goes into survival. Wasn't the point of "civilization" to not have to worry about all of that?

Yes it should, but modernity also made us less reliant on the group and I think it made use more introvert and more social risk averse. This is something that can be worked on with reasonable cost.
