Fascism is bad. There are good ways to tackle it. Antifa isn't using these.
It's not a good organisation. However, the right definitely needs to stop overhyping it. As pointed out earlier, what they do is nothing close to 9/11 or Oklahoma City, although they partake in the unlawful use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims, which can be considered terrorism.

I think all the people murdered by those American backed dictators would heavily disagree.

Not to mention all those forced to become refugees (Such as those fleeing from Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador today) thanks to the failed neoliberal policies said dictators implemented which led to catastropic drops in human development and societal cohesion, and in the case of Argentina, Brazil and Chile, led to catastrophic economic crises that were only resolved after Keynesian economic policy was re-enacted (Contrary to popular belief, only after Pinochet fired the Chicago Boys in the early 80s and renationalized key industries for the benefit of the state did the Miracle of Chile commence).

Alright, alright. That’s fair. I never said the countries themselves weren’t flawed.

Fine, look at Scandinavia. They have socialism on a capitalist framework. Mixed economics. They’re doing quite well. Some aspects of socialism are actually beneficial to a nation.

To be fair to Corbyn, he has shyed away from some of the more radical pro-Maduro factions of his party of late.

Indeed, and funnily enough, despite being routinely denounced as a "dangerous totalitarian socialist" by rightwingers, he was the most democratic leader Guatemala ever had in decades, and after his overthrow during Operation PBSUCCESS courtesy of UFC puppet Allen Dulles, Guatemala would not have a democracy until the 1990s.

Social democracy is not and will never be socialism. They are a welfare state at best, but socialism? Get back to me after they actually manage to place the means of production, distribution and exchange under public ownership. Until then, they are merely "humane" capitalists.
