The "strong start" was Adama's retirement speech from the uh ... prequel/pilot episode? I forgot how it works, cause episode 1 actually starts with the aftermath of the nukes being fired.
Regardless, it gives you the false sense that it'll be an anti-imperialist/America-critical kind of show in the aftermath/midst of GWOT. And then the nukes fly and it's like that speech never happened (I still think it's a good speech tbh).
My conspiracy theory is that the shows production was captured by the NVIXM cult (a surprising amount of the actors/actressess were members, including Sharon's actress), which was probably controlled by intelligence, and that derailed any sort of progressive message the story might have ended up having.
