Fedora by default uses "targeted" policy rather than "strict" policy,
and therefore has no notion of user roles and domains (only specific
programs are confined, not users under "targeted" policy).  See the
Fedora SELinux FAQ.

If you want strict policy, you have to install selinux-policy-strict and
switch your /etc/selinux/config SELINUXTYPE definition to it, then
reboot and relabel (typically in permissive mode the first time to allow
that initial boot to succeed).
