lmao read the mahabharata

Then you would see that the real justification for the slaughter of countless millions was the near quintuple-cuckolding of Draupadi's husbands by the Kauravas, which was only stopped by Krishna because the latter can do whatever the fuck he wants, including feeding Arjuna a line of celestial bs that he needed to hear to waste Bhishma, Drona, and the other undefeatables in retribution for the near-complete humiliation caused to gambling addict Yuhdhishthira and his brothers.

On the part of the Pandavas and their wife the war was pure revenge and saving face. For Krishna the whole thing was self-interest, incomprehensible to mortals.

If you read the Mahabharata you can skip the Gita.
