Not Shezznazz but Hobbes thought of the "natural state" of humanity as war of everyone against everyone with the only motivation being profit to oneself. The way to escape that state of being was to form a state where all members relinquish their individual power to a single person or group who then intimidate everyone into following the rules they made up by punishing them if they don't.

It is pretty much just an attempt to justify the divine right of kings in a more or less scientific/philosophical way.
