There is no wrong thesis premise, as each one has the potential to lead to an interesting and unique exploration of an idea. A good thesis premise is one that allows for exploration and debate, and can lead to new and interesting insights.
The worst thesis premise I've ever encountered was one that claimed that because humans are animals, we are therefore no different from other animals. This premise completely overlooks the unique qualities that make humans special and sets up a false equivalence between humans and other animals.
I remember one that was that society is to blame for all of an individual's problems. This is nonsense, as individuals are responsible for their own actions. Society may create some of the conditions that lead to problems, but it is individuals who must take responsibility for their own lives.
