Sort of depends on what one means by corrupt.
I can be trusted with vast amounts of power, unless you’re someone I think is really wicked/deplorable, in which case I might use my power against your wickedness, even if you’d given it to me, which you might tend to try to label as corrupt.
That is, I wouldn’t be temped to do what people traditionally think of as corrupt, because most or all of that I don’t like or want. I would like to stop human destruction of the environment, stop lots of corporate misbehavior, reinvent the economic system, etc., and that would tend to involve removing many people from their current positions. There’s so much power invested in corporate greed and mega-wealth amassment, though, that I don’t think there is enough power in human hands to change it by brute force. It has to change by transforming our ideas.
I think a lot of “corruption from power” isn’t some sort of essential force of truth. I think it has to do with unhealthy people grasping while trapped within twisted notions of what makes sense.
