yes it dose its command since

The expression is: one bad apple will spoil the barrel. It refers to the fact that a bad apple's spoilage will spread to the other apples in the barrel by close physical contact with them. This is demonstrably true, but it is not instantaneous, and whether it invariably applies to other tightly packed groups - people, for example - is problematic.

A related axiom, that we are known by the company we keep, seems to support the idea. On the other hand, intelligent people in Republican Party in the United States seem to believe that they can extend membership to violent, ignorant bigots without becoming the Party of violent, ignorant bigotry.
