Accusing them of bias (unfounded as well in my opinion) is bad enough but racist is a whole other level of moral failing and is something done with conscious and deliberate malice. We've heard a lot about threats towards the developers recently and while the OP doesn't cross that line specifically throwing around accusations of racism are irresponsible, unsupportable, and potentially incendiary.
I'd not say it is unsupported. You can see the bias by comparing the amount of dialogue content in the game, which has been done. On launch Wyll had the least content of all companions (I think something like four hours less than Astarion?), and certain aspects of is writing are problematic. The disparity continues and people have, rightfully imo, pointed out that he gets less priority in the patches. E.g. the fabled Valentines patch and apparently he still doesn't get a kiss or hug in the epilogue like other origin companions. Considering Halsin, who is a meme character at this point, gets more attention, this does stand out. Maybe not to you, and maybe not on these boards, but people have been talking about this.
