I mean maximum equality. That means that everyone is equal regardless of race, wealth, class, gender, status etc.

Exactly. There isn't one. This is why communism isn't achievable.

Then why do people even think communism and ''human equality'' is a worthy endeavor?

None. Some form of hierarchy is necessary to achieve flourishing. Having a society in which the most competent people in general have more power, is more likely to have better outcomes for that society as a whole. Egalitarianism is not achievable anyways. Sure, you can alleviate it to some extent, but inequality is always going to be part of the human condition.

I agree. Equality is a worthless endeavor.

i think its because ppl desire a return to a state in which they were not immersed in a social strata, basically a state of symbolic absence. I believe it may actually be primal to an extent but generally emerges in response to the burdens of individualization common in contemporary societies
