The Thalmor are depicted as being Nazis, who are arguably considered the most "evil" organization in the recorded human history. They hate anyone that isn't a Thalmor (Including other Altmer that aren't "Pure" enough), and openly encourage genocide of everyone that isn't Thalmor.

They were made to have nothing redemable about them. They didn't even invent the autobahn.
