Each and every race has their own gods and it seems that both the Empire and Aldmeri Dominion seem ok with preserving everbody elses. So why only pick on Talos? Talos is a human that ascended to godhood, a concept that already pisses off a lot of elves. Doesn't help that Tiber Septim was the one to conquer the Summerset Isles by mass-murdering a lot of elves. Forced into submission and having to worship a human, many of the high elves (who live a long life) had a lot of hatred to live with. Then came the Thalmor. Gotta remember that the current Aldmeri Dominion was only established very recently. Until the Oblivion Crisis, all of its territory was Imperial land, worshiping the nine.

Necroed like a boss. But that's not really the point of Talos. That's a point, a surface point, but it doesn't cover the actual truth. The Thalmor want him gone because he is Lorkhan. They hate Lorkhan. That's the whole point.
