Explanation
Equality in society fundamentally means that all individuals are treated alike and are given equal opportunities, without any special advantages or disadvantages. Therefore, the most direct implication of equality is the absence of 'privileges', which are special rights, advantages, or immunities granted to a particular person or group, often based on birth, social status, or other arbitrary distinctions. The presence of privileges inherently contradicts the principle of equality.
