I have to ask if you truly believe there is no difference when it was you yourself arguing how the Thalmor plan to bring down all of creation. The Empire has no such plans. While yes there is arrogance within both the Thalmor and the Empire, the Stormcloaks have just as much pride it could almost pass as arrogance. It blinds them in much the same way arrogance does.They believe it's their "nord way" or the sword.

While the Thalmor want an all elf domination, the Stormcloaks want an all Nord domination, except their idea is just localized to Skyrim for the time being. At least with Empire society, all the cultures are mixed and accepted. There is so much wrong with that. First of all most of the dominion soldiers have no idea that top brass is fucking crazy. Most soldiers and officers actually believe they're helping the humans become more civilized. The stormcloaks have just as much arrogance? Really? I never see a stormcloak call an imperial or anyone else a savage for not following their way. The nords only want the freedom to live out their ways without orders from a failing empire or some snotty elf, nowhere do the stormcloaks force their way of life on anyone.

At least with the empire everyone is accepted? Don't make me laugh, the empire treats all commoners like dirt or slaves for the rich. The empire's only loyalty is power and money the people's needs fall to the wayside as their taxes are draining any province they haven't abandoned dry.
