Correct. It's all about survival. Ulfric isn't a bigot, Golmar is partially a bigot, Rolf definitely a die-hard bigot and some of the rebels basically paranoid idiots with those who were bigot to non-Nords, believing non-Nords were spies to the AD. Well, they were right to be suspicious since Thalmor do anything to achieve their goal, but that is not an excuse for the Stormcloaks to be bigots. All of this is why the Thalmor will try everything in their power to keep the Civil War going, they using the prejudice itself for the Stormcloak and the Empire to hate against each other.

I'm not going to start the argument of "Ulfric lets a Beastmen/Elf" join the Stormcloaks since it can be used to argue against any argument that contradict anybody's opinion. I also like to point out that if you were to kill a non-Nord citizen in any city, the guards will be all up on your ass, showing that Skyrim guards does protect non-Nords.
