As a television watcher I can See someone lose their best friend in one episode, and look disheveled in the next and assume she’s had a rough couple of days.
Which clearly justifies the leap she made from what she was to silver haired hitler.

they have foreshadowed that she can be cruel, but not evil
they have shown that she can be angry and emotional, but not crazy
Executing people that she has no idea if they are innocent like she did with the 163 masters is crazy.
Executing nobles that she knows are likely innocent as she did when she wanted the Sons of the Harpy to stop is evil.
Forcing a man to either marry her or be killed by her dragons is evil and crazy.

I think They did.
I feel Like she physically looks disheveled. She’s dealing with other people in a paranoid manner.
That pretty much all happened in between episode 4 & 5 though. We first see her and she is already disheveled from her grieving. I wouldn't call her interactions paranoid though at that point. Her meeting with everyone was not a paranoid one. She was very cold and focused. Her statement to Tyrion before he leaves was not one of paranoia. She was very clear headed at that point.
Then we leap to burning everyone to the ground.

I have issues with several things this season but reasoning around Dany going ape shite isn’t one of them.
Reasoning isn’t the issue. The pace of it is.

To be fair they are massive slave owners, so not exactly all that innocent.

The Tarleys refused to bend the knee. Big difference.

Dude, she did bad things to bad people. Obviously it's within her character to do it to hundreds of thousands of totally innocent people. This is good writing
So Jon Snow killed that rapist, is it in his nature to go put his sword in an innocent’s chest as well?

It is amazing how many don't understand this.
Dany went mad because she's lost two dragons, two best friends, Jon is stone walling her, she lost her best claim to the throne, and her advisers hid a secret from her about her claim to the throne.
It definitely makes sense that she would lose control.
The way all those events transpired and culminated in her burning down KL was done very sloppy, especially the dragons and Missandie.

Obviously. Did you need it spoon fed to you?

I’m sorry, have you watched Game of Thrones? This is what made the show great.

Ummm, it is absolutely not in Jon’s nature to kill innocents.

You should probably adjust your sarcasm meter.

So you think her immediately calling out JS for betraying her wasn’t paranoid?
Because that’s the first scene with her in the last episode when Tyrion goes to talk to hwr

It’s not the outcome that bothers us. It’s the steps that were taken, and how they were taken. There are massive leaps of logic that needed much more depth than what was given.

So we get the first glimpse of paranoia in the same episode that she burns a city to the ground.
You’re right. No pace issues there.

I dont Think the leaps of logic are that great.
She’s completely abandoned the idea that the people will love her.
She sees that the man she loves will ultimately become a Rivals whether he wants to or not, and he won’t listen to her to prevent it.
Her advisors are betraying her.
Her best friend died.
And she decides that being soft has cost her too much and listening to Tyrion has cost her too much for nothing and that she is gonna rule with fear.
That’s not hard logic to follow. It’s also not hard logic

I guess I look at it as her slow fall into madness using violence to get what she wants when others beg her to take a more reserved approach and then we get the big triggers the past two seasons that are too much for her fragile psyche and ego to handle. Without people to rein her in it was obvious at least to me it wouldn’t take much more than rejection and a something that threatened her claim to completely break her. Just my opinion.

I thought yall were saying early in the thread that it was a betrayal. How is it paranoid if it is the turth?
