Great work, friend.Kunti is definitely an interesting character. I think you have to consider her in some ways that her actions were borne out of neccessity. It does not make them right or even remotely moral but I suppose a necessary evil.
I'd really love it if you could please highlight how she was fighting her own battle in her own way against the royalty of Hastinapur to give the Pandavas their rights.
I mean it does explain why she could have insisted on Draupadi marrying all five of her sons to unify them. Or why she knew she could not reveal Karna's birth because the resulting scandal would destroy any chance of her sons ever gaining the throne. After all, she would have to explain how she could have a son out of wedlock and that would have meant the questioning of the right to legitimacy of the entire Pandava line.
Even until a few decades ago, the British royalty itself frowned upon marrying someone outside the noble families of europe.
