I think genuinely dangerous ideas are hard to come by though. They have to be original enough that few people have considered them before, and at the same time have powerful consequences. Ideas like that usually don't pop into the heads of random, uninformed strangers.
Depends on your definition of "Dangerous." I've come across quite a few ideas that tend to do -severe- damage to the happiness of at least a subset of those aware of them. Some of them are about the universe; things like entropy. Others are social ideas, which I won't give an example of.
