Verhoeven didn't write Robocop, he blew off the script on the title alone without reading it, until his wife picked it out of the trash, read it, and told him he should give it a chance because she thought it was amazing.
Also police themselves aren't really depicted as evil or 'fascist' in the movie, not at all, rather they are a remaining force for good and order in a society where crime has escalated beyond all reason, and where a crooked megacorporation exploits both the police and gang criminals for the sake of profits.
Robocop as a character is also intended to be an allegory for Jesus Christ.
Verhoeven is definitely a socialist of some kind, but he does not seem to me to be the kind of radical anarchist socialist who thinks there should be no police or law.
