tongue-in-cheek can't have been accidental. Fwiw, the Internet seems
rather definite that Verhoeven (a dedicated Liberal) was satirizing.
Got a cite on that? Sounds like an interesting article or two.

The cold hard truth of Starship Troopers, Paul Verhoeven's 1997
follow-up to his infamous 1995 Showgirls, is painfully obvious from
the start: this is not Oscar bait. The acting is wooden, especially
from lead actor Casper Van Dien. Denise Richards' performance is also
suspect, playing aspiring pilot Carmen Ibanez. The only actors that
stand out are the steady veterans Clancy Brown and Michael Ironside.
What Starship Troopers is, though, is satire at its best, with
Verhoeven masterfully weaving social commentary and potshots
throughout the film.
