Fair. Would you say Starship Troopers was social commentary?
Alas, I never read that one.
It's good. I don't remember it bearing much resemblance to the film, but I last read the book probably over 40 years ago and the movie was released 27 years ago. The movie was absolutely political satire.
The movie isn't based on the book if I remember correctly. Someone pointed out it was similar so they brought the title rights.
