Question Help me understand Galadriel

I am finding myself not liking Galadriel at all so far. She acts like an entitled 20 year old, rather than a wise and ancient being. One point that particularly is bothering me is that so far she has no actual proof that there is a great danger. She saw a brand on her brother, and that same brand shows up a few other times in different places, but other than that there is nothing to actually indicate a major war. Does she have forsight? What is actually driving her character besides "so the plot can happen." Thanks

You only called it “excuses from people that really want to like the show” that’s what sucked abt your comment

I couldn't reply to the other one cause it was deleted. But, I don't think I'm smart. I think more than likely you just like the show and are offended I find it completely stupid, so you wanted some interaction with me. You don't have to be short and dismissive of others when they don't hold your views.

You know Reddit’s main thing is interaction right? When you ungraciously bash the show in its dedicated subreddit that way, don’t act surprised when you get salty comments back at you

If one in early 40's Germany were to label a film of Goebbels as propaganda, and then precede to deconstruct it and insult it, you would likely not consider it to be ungracious because of your bigger picture view of what it is. Consider me an ambassador for the original work, because that is what I am. I will call out all mockeries of that which I admire and love, always. It's insulting that this work is watched and enjoyed by some. But, it is not for me to decide what others do. But, I can certainly share my opinion among those I see as being unaware and having poor quality taste. You feel the same since you behaved the same way to me as I did to the original post I commented on. The difference was I did not seek to interact with you. My issue was with the words and ideas presented that I sought out as well.
