We haven't been shown, at all, that Faunus are really collectively despised (feared yes, thanks to WF). The racism against Mutants isn't like the "racism" against Faunus, in terms of magnitude.

And if they were hated for being superior to humans, shouldn't Hunters be hated as well? I mean, they have better natural healing, can use Dust like a mage, can resist damage that would kill anyone else, better sense of awareness, each has some unique special ability, and it's implied that with Aura they can live for at least more than 80 years.
