They do need to do more to show it because some fans have actually started to think that there is no discrimination/racism toward the Faunus, and that the Faunus are exaggerating, overreacting, and too blind to realize that they're not being discriminated against.

"Hey, the Faunus are discriminated against, and that's why the White Fang exists!"

>Proceeds to show absolutely no discrimination aside from


 * Weiss, who had a very good reason to, considering what the White Fang put her family through, which honestly makes it look like the Faunus brought it on themselves.


 * Cardin, who's an equal opportunity asshole. Jaune was right when he said Cardin's a jerk to everyone. He's been a jerk to Velvet, Jaune, and Pyrrha. One Faunus, two humans. The only thing that he has done that can actually be proven 100% to be discrimination is calling the Faunus animals.


 * Roman, who's a snarky asshole to pretty much everyone.

At least show background characters being dicks to Faunus or something. They said in the directors commentary that Roman's attitude toward Faunus is commonplace, but we have seen no evidence that it is actually common. Expecting us to just take their word for it without showing us that it's true is just bad writing, and it makes things inconsistent. not sure how any of that is a problem let people think that the white fang are in the wrong if that's what they decide to think. I find accusations of bad writing to be hilarious as things that people claim as such are often far more fun/interesting than anything I have ever seen people point to as good writing. also I find the these people we have seen display racism don't count because reasons show us other people doing it to be equally hilarious
