I have no idea how mortals from Nirn (yes, Elves are mortal, they just live for a very long time) can destroy the ENTIRE universe. If by destroying the belief of Talos is destroying the universe, how come there was one before Talos was a god? People see the Thalmor in this way because of the core context in this whole conflict: imperialism. Foreign nation tries to enforce their beliefs and influence over other nations, people see this as being wrong, many come to despise them. But what most people don't realize is that this is EXACTLY what Tiber Septim did in the Second Era. Also, he did it on a continental scale. But I guess it was okay for him to do it right? Right? WRONG!!! There is no difference. If anything, it's history repeating itself. Only this time the roles are reversed. If an Elder Scrolls game featured the Summerset Isles under attack from Tiber Septim and the Numidium, everyone would hate Talos. It's all in the presentation. Long live the Dominion!!!!!
