Anarchist philosopher and writer Pyotr Kropotkin wrote this amazing article called "Are we good enough" and I'm going to copy paste part of it here because it's really relevant to your point about preventing bad people from taking over
To answer the question you presented at the end of your comment, Kropotkin says no. There is no way to prevent this and thus we must destroy the positions of power to stop men from using it to oppress others.
