It'd literally be equivalent to the Jews/Homosexuals/Slavs wanting the Nazis to succeed. That is true, they obviously don't want them to succeed. But the Empire isn't currently doing anything to oppose them either, in fact they are enabling the Thalmor to continue their plans by letting them do basically whatever in the Imperial Provinces and because of that giving them the possibility to cripple humanity from the inside.
