Yes, it is.  Our Debian Free Software Guidelines enforce a mandate of no
discrimination.  Software included in Debian does not discriminate on
people based on their opinions or any other factor, including employer,
race, gender, ethnicity, etc.  

You may note that Windows also does not prohibit one from using it to
disseminate unpopular and incorrect opinions.

by using debian he associates debians products with rascism

That is a very far stretch.  I fail to see how that works.  Does Playboy
associate Sun's products with pornography because their server runs
Solaris? [1]

Would I associate Microsoft's products with Free Software if I were to
port PyGopherd to Windows?
