I know there is a bit Internet belief that starship troopers is fascist but I’m not convinced.

Everyone is equal, free healthcare and education.They have an entry to vote so admittedly not everyone gets a vote. But absoultely anyone can choose to serve there government and by serving you automatically get a vote. Tbh I think there are arguments for that system. Once you get citizenship their the system is completely democratic. They have propaganda but it is total war and which democracy hasn’t had propaganda during total war?

The book goes into it more and the book is a lot more serious and less campy. Verhoeven did try to twist it as much as possible which lost a lot but he still made a really entertaining movie.
