As long as it's not illegal content like csam, they should allow it. Why not let the racist shitheads out themselves? It's not like valve would be forcing anyone to buy them, and don't need to promote it.
Besides, when you get into the area of banning simply "distasteful" content, then you get people asking to whitewash everything, including history. I don't want a historically accurate game to get censored. I don't want content to be arbitrarily censored by lawyers and credit card companies, or any dumbass individuals' sensitivities, for that matter.
I'm not asking for Steam to have to allow such content, either. If there's a game that's just celebrating being vile trash, I'm also fine with Steam telling them to fuck off the platform.
As is usual in the real world, the correct answer is no extreme.
