The most satire parts are not about fighting the bugs. The "only a dead ... is a good ..." is a classic fascist trope, but it's the parts about disregard of human life and health and the propaganda in the movie that really mock fascism.

Disregard to human life and health isn't limited to a fascist government though. As for the propaganda, I always took that at making fun of the military and their over the top commercials and other media.

I never compared it to the actual government.
