When i was a young and stupid leftist i enjoyed this film but in order to accept it I told myself it was just a big satire.
Now that i'm a bit older I'm more inclined to think it's genuine with some humorous exaggeration.

It's obviously satire. You, like most conservatives, got dumber as you aged.
Verhoeven wanted it to be satire but he didn't even read the book so it's no surprise it comes across as genuine to younger views (AKA the target audience of the movie)

The book is redpill, the movie is satire.

I would say his execution on lampooning it was thrown off a bit but you can obviously see the satire and propaganda, he also forgets that propaganda works which is why governments use it.

Verhoeven was a hippy commie, of course it was a satire of the book.
Roughnecks: The Starship troopers chronicles was a thousand times better.

Conservatives having difficulty recognizing satire confirmed. Studies back that up, and that's probably also how Steven Colbert was invited to speak the White House correspondents dinner under Bush 2.0 What a joyous thing, that footage
