Fascists hated intellectuals, communists, minorities, and unions. Their key feature is one party nationalism working in cooperation with business class elites. So this does not describe FDR at all. While you can find some comparisons with big government programs... FDRs programs served the working class farmers and industrial workers who were marginalized by the Great Depression. Like I commented before FDR was a democratic socialist for which there are a wide body of proponents and thinkers from the early part of the 20th century, one important one being RH Tawney. Also note an actual fascist plot to overthrow FDR as described in general Smeedly Butler's testimony. Smearing FDR as a communist or a fascist is the recent work of libertarians who as we know are opposed to to big government of any flavor. I hate seeing FDR getting smeared I think he's one of our countries greatest presidents
