I think it just shows why many feel the need to join the Equalists. It isn't just benders like the Triad, but the council itself that also appears to be oppressive. Poor Tenzin has no shot with all the other council members obviously bought out by Tarrlok somehow. They always agree with him no matter what. And he manipulates everyone to get what he wants. But he isn't Amon. In fact, he would want to eliminate Amon because he is a bender and would be the natural enemy with the Equalists. (Amon is a non bender btw so he won't be Tarrlok.) Unfortunately, it appears as if he either believes every non bender is an Equalist, or is willing to do anything and everything to snuff them out even at the extent of his people. Tarrlok represents the oppressive bending elite more than he represents the extremist revolutionary leader. I believe he wants power and manipulates others to get his way.

Also, it is actually better to have antagonists on both sides of it. There's so much more to the story now that there isn't just one clear cut enemy or problem.
