as [Paul Verhoeven, the director] states in the film’s DVD commentary, the central takeaway message of Starship Troopers is that “War makes fascists of us all.”

I am aware it’s anti-fascist in message, but i’d recommend watching Lindsay Ellis’ video about satirizing nazis/fascists, the main point being that message is often lost on people and just makes it look cool, see people clamoring for the Warhammer Universe
The movie is a jab against that idea.
