I don't know shit about Skyrim, but can you play along with them for now and betray them at a critical moment? That sounds like it'd be more fun than just opposing them outright.

You can at one opportunity.

Both the empire and stormcloaks task you with retrieving the jagged crown. You can give it to the other leader instead if you want.

The one's in the army are defs racist as fuck.

Some of the random citizens who support them just want their churches back, or the war to end.

It's medieval fantasy, who isn't racist?

Basically every province is like "fuck you this is mine".

The stormcloaks are only supportive of nord people and nord beliefs, banishing the elves to the slums and the algonions(lizard people) to the docks shows this. Its also telling when the leader only springs to action if nords are under attack or in danger.

Its racist, yes. But I think their racism is a reaction to a deeper problem, they want to preserve their culture but they find their homeland rapidly changing due to outside forces beyond their control. Racism isnt the right reaction obviously, but theres something deeper going on in the land of the Nords that gives some credence to their attitude towards outsiders.

they don't really seem to display that type of awareness tho.

they do accept me, a dark elf, among their ranks, but i'd like some concessions on what they want for Skyrim

Well it is a bit multilayered considering they face religious persecution and in the lore of the Elder Scrolls, Talos is potentially one of the factors keeping reality together.

Im not sure if youre ironically using white nationalist rhetoric to show that theyre racist, or using it totally unironically
