Hobbes defines equality as the natural state of individuals being equally capable of killing one another, leading to a state of nature characterized by constant fear and competition for power. In this state, there is no inherent hierarchy or authority, and individuals must come together to establish a social contract to avoid the chaos of the state of nature.
