>> Clearly Fury has done considerable harm. This may be a naive question (I haven't watched all the movies), but what I'm wondering is: - lately (say, in the past 3-5 years), has he done more harm than good? <<
Not by my count.
>> - in that time period, has he done any good at all?<<
Maybe some, but it's all questionable, could have been better, someone else did most of the work, etc. Like he helped back the search for Captain America but then promptly dropped Steve on his head. He tried to stop the WSC from nuking New York but they did it anyway and Tony had to divert the missile.
>>Given only what's been described here, I'd have no trouble nominating him for a "Go home, Charlie" *right now*.<<
Consider that we'd need someone else to take over his position, and determine whether they'd do more good and less harm. This is likely, but making that shift is not easy even so. Merely removing him would not necessarily improve matters. 0_o
