Lore confusion

Correct me if I'm wrong about the lore. The Stormcloaks worship Talos. Talos eventually became Tiber Septim, the founder of the Imperial Empire. Wtf? I thought the Stormcloaks hated the empire...

You're missing a few bits, which really are actually spoilers

The issue is with what's happened in the Empire since the Great War.

First: The Stoarmcloaks worship not Talos, but all other divines, too.
Second: Yes, you're right there: wtf! That's what everyone in the empire thought after the war against the thalmor.
That's the whole reason behind the war.

Tiber Septim became Talos according to some but there is this

According to one theory, Wulfarth, Tiber Septim, and Zurin Arctus can all be regarded as parts of the same enantiomorphic Oversoul that makes up the deity known as Talos.
