Humanity literally tried to grab an entire race and lock them away at a single island. I'm pretty sure that's enough proof that the discrimination is really as wide spread as the WF thinks.

Plus we saw that every human is watching the tournament from comfortable places while the only Faunus we see are in the middle of nowhere living on a trailer. Actually there are some Faunus within the seats of Amity. Oh come one Inika! That has nothing to do with it. Not every person who suffers from racism has to be poor. Some, like these faunus, can actually find careers and afford an entrance while others don't. And given the fact that they took the time to especifically point out that the only Faunus watching it from another place live in poor conditions, that has to mean something. or it could be the ones living on a trailer were there due to reasons not dirrectly related to money- or if they were related to money it'd more specifically be Weiss's "Father" (litterally what she has him as in her contacts- talking about emotional disconnect- the that's one step away from putting his full name in there rather than acknowledging his parental status). Also being poor and being discriminated against are not related, it very well could be that the ones at the trailer are in say Vacuo and thus couldn't afford to be there in person or don't care to buy the tickets to be there

Being poor and being discriminated against are completely related. I know that perfectly because I'm from Mexico and either I learn to have an stand out job and several languages or I don't get to work outside of my country without being treated like an outcast.

It could be something else, yes, it could be Vacuo since students in Vacuo don't seem to have uniforms either so the whole kingdom might as well be poor but we haven't seen discrimination as badly as they make it out to be and this, alongside Velvet and Menagerie are the only proves of discrimination being a thing in Remnant.
