if he were still around he'd be a MAGA hat
Hm, it's been like thirty-five years, but I wouldn't have guessed that from Stranger in a Strange Land
Kimmo-
Try "Farnham's Freehold", where he decided to cover racism by exploring how badly whites might be treated in a post-apocalyptic future (it's shit for lots of other reasons but that's the big one), if you have a very strong stomach. Or Friday, which should make you throw up no matter how cast iron it is ("rape is fine if your rapist is manly enough and marries you later"). In his early days he wrote some interesting stuff like "By his bootstraps", but as he got older it was either self-worshipping, self-indulgent wank ( e.g. "Time enough for Love", or "I shall fear no evil") or rancid, toxic, hard-libertarian fantasies (most of what's been mentioned so far and more besides).
He once had to be restrained from getting into a fight with Arthur C. Clarke because Clarke took the piss out of Reagan's Star Wars project.

The film is a satire, the book is not.
Some things he wrote aren't dripping with fascist/libertarian tropes, but if he were still around he'd be a MAGA hat.
