Well, as for me, the real proof of the existance of discrimination is a) the existance of WF itself and b) the fact that some faunus still enter WF and... well... 'approve' Adam's actions. We've seen tha rally, we've seen the ammount of faunus who visited it. That shows me a lot.

What else do we know?

- the history of Remnant. The War between humans and faunus. Menagerie;

- the beginning of the seria: the faunus protest is shown on TV;

- some companies use the faunus labor... Blake told about "controversial labor forces " in fact;

- Cardin and Weiss;

- some faunus still live outside the kingdoms. For what reason? Talking about RWBY manga that is not non-canon some faunus even live under the ground. I'm sorry, but nobody is willnig to hide under the ground just because of bullies like Cardin or "judgemental little girls" like Weiss;'''

- Roman's speech on the rally "the ones in control; the people pulling the strings; the dirty, rotten humans that run our kingdoms! Government; military; even the schools " - It probably means that people corrupted all the power themselves. So the faunus couldn't be the part of government and military. Pr. Ozpin seems to be fine for faunus - but I assume that in Atlas, for example, the situation is worse;

- some random faunus show really a lot of hate towards people. It's not just Adam: "Finally I've got to kill a Schnee" (WF Lietenant) - just look at some faunus on the ralle, during Adam's "Bring them to their knees" line. - Well no shit that's proof of its existence. Nobody's saying that faunus discrimination doesn't exist in the show, it's just that the writiers have done a pretty crappy job at showing it, and as a result made the WF seem like a bunch of psychopaths led by some angsty twat who was more concerned with getting back at his ex than his "revolution". As for the number of people who joined up at the rally, given that we don't know how many faunus there are in Vale to begin with we can't really pass judgement

- We know almost literally nothing about that war or the history behind it.

- A protest that was disrupted by the White Fang's actions. Given the fact that this broadcast was in Vale, it's even reasonable to assume that Adam and his crew were responsible.

- Not using faunus labor would be discriminatory. The fact that Papa Schnee probably isn't cutting them a fair deal, however, I'm willing to give you.

- Irrelevant. One's an equal oppurtunity bully who saw and exploited the weakness that was Velvet's faunus heritage, the other has very legitimate reasons not to trust faunus.

- Some humans also live outside the kingdoms. Not everyone wants to live in major population centers. I'd assume the Grimm would have a harder time getting into an underground bunker than a log cabin, so that's probably why they do that.

- No shit. Thank you for literally spelling out what Roman said.

- The examples you're listing here are White Fang members and recruits, not average civilian faunus. Also, nobody reacted to Adam's "Bring them to their knees!" line, they were all too busy running into the battle they'd already agreed to join.
