In general the real life examples given are bad, weak and often attribute to Hobbes things that were put together based on a philosophical school that largely rejected Hobbes. And that\\\'s not even getting into what we do know about the \\\"state of nature\\\" which has consistently demonstrated Hobbes wrong.
