In the Memorial in Santiago de Chile there's a stand about people who had to flee to other countries after the coup. They're all over the map.

This technique you just used. It's called a 'straw man'.

Isn't fighting socialism (in 2016) a huge straw man by itself?

Socialist countries has all kinds of trajectories, as capitalist ones do. Moreover there's no capitalist and socialist countries anymore but a spectrum of economic regimes.

Norway and China beg to differ. People argue that whole EU is socialist these days, and some of countries are quite successful.

The EU is tanking thanks to socialism. Norway has oil to fund its pseudo-socialism. China is doing "well" since it ditched socialism.

I'm in the EU everything is quite fine outside of alt-right blogs. The only ones really tanking are the UK.

Capitalist nations like the US aren't exactly doing great yet.
