The closest the argument that prescriptivism is fascism gets to being right is how prescriptivism is used against students who speak a vernacular English associated with a racial minority, equating not talking white with talking wrong.
I would say that's more of a consequence or a symptom of prescriptivism being fascistic, in the sense that it self-reinforces the policing tendencies of language by engaging with another component of policing racial minorities..
