When Brabantio warns the Moor, "Look to her, Moor, if thou hast eyes to see; / She has deceived her father, and may thee" it is merely foreshadowing at this point and nothing more. Certainly, she had betrayed her father, but she has shown she is very loyal in the process also. Brabantio knows nothing of Iago's machinations and he even thought that it was spells and witchcraft that had stolen his daughter. Desdemona telling Brabantio that it was her choice probably just made him very furious. It cannot be argued that it was accurate or inaccurate-Brabantio was merely lashing out to assuage his anger.
I think he dismissed him because he doesnt show any respect for Othello and for anyone else.

Brabantio did not want Othello for a son-in-law. Despite his appearance of being nice to Othello, Brabantio is a racist man. He accused Othello of "witchcraft" and stealing his daughter because he cannot understand why Desdemona could possibly love a black man.Furthermore, at the beginning of the play, he tells Roderigo to go away because "My daughter is not for thee". However, when he learns that Desdemona had indeed eloped, he wishes that it was Roderigo who had married Desdemona instead.
His theory is that Desdemona was bewitched.

Brabantio was not happy about the fact of Othello and Desdemona marriage. Brabantio was so unhappy he even promised to reward Roderigo if he can find Desdemona, after being told that she has run away to get married to Othello.
Desdemona was captivated by Othello's accounts of military adventures and exploits, so he defends himself. Desdemona appears and verifies her real love for the Moor as he explains that her love for him is not based on witchcraft.

Duke responds to Brabantio's complaint by acknowledging his concerns but emphasizes the importance of love and mutual consent in Desdemona's marriage to Othello. He points out that Desdemona has willingly chosen Othello, highlighting that her happiness should take precedence over Brabantio's objections. The Duke also seeks to maintain peace and order in Venice, indicating that he cannot simply overturn the marriage based on Brabantio's accusations. Ultimately, the Duke calls for a fair discussion to address the situation.
