I don't *hate* Ulfric entirely, I just dislike his racist ways, and how he pushes those ways onto his people and he uses the ban on Talos as his aid, when really, all he cares about is himself.

Ulfric may be racist and (however you look at it) selfish, but unlike the Empire he fights for his beliefs which I've come to respect. If I cared enough about politics and was racist then maybe I would have sided with him, but I don't care about politics, I'd rather get things done, and I don't care that Talos is banned, I actually agree with why Talos shouldn't be a Divine, he is only a man afterall, I don't think there should be a war because it's banned, but I do have a weak spot for racism. Ulfric treats Dunmer like scum making them live in filth and he won't even listen to their words and he treats Argonians like farm animals and he couldn't give a flying **** about opinions beside his own.

Don't get me wrong though, I don't like the Empire much either, both have their fair share of flaws and I took time to realize a majority of all of those flaws, but I had more hope in the Empire, and should they go wrong that's on them, but again, there is better hope with them.

My personal views on this whole thing: Stupid, all stupid, killing kin over a treaty that banned all Talos to keep peace with the Thalmor nontheless, that treaty was an intelligent move in my opinion and apparently it has been able to uphold peace for 20 years. What if they all joined together and gained stregth to take down the Thalmor, that would be the best, thus provoking more of my thoughts on Ulfrics selfish ways. It isn't about Talos at all, it's about wanting ultimate power.
