An idea being "bad" is power agnostic. If I want to blow up orphanages, wanting to do so is bad whether I'm the president or a homeless dude, the ability to follow through may change with power, but the ability to follow through isn't what makes "wanting to blow up orphanages" bad, the idea itself is bad.
