Fear is a response. As such, I think it has no intrinsic or moral value. Whether or not fear is good depends on everything in the situation but the emotion itself.
Fear can initiate a self-preservation tactic but it can also paralyze. It can alert us to dangers but it can be dead wrong in its aim. It can create a superhero or make a victim or people. It can be light and without real danger or it can foretell impending death.
Fear is a tool; it depends of how we use it and whether we let it use us. It's neither good nor bad and all that "no fear" tropism is BS. Fear should be felt in order to be understood.
