He's not bad because he was saving aristocrats. It's not that simple. French society was unjust and needed to change, but murdering people for who they were at birth was not "good". The character is a humane person who helped people in danger, and he is also a satire of silly people who had privileges that they didn't deserve. His act was important because it made people underestimate him, and kept himself and his family safe.
