So without evidence of your cultural racism assertion I state firmly, again, that without any proof we can only assume that national/cultural racism in Ishgard is actually -not- a thing. For now.
If I can flip the script for a second - do we have any proof that there isn't racism? Or at the very least, none of the discrimination that - as stated by the lore team in the provided quotes - is quite common in Eorzea as a whole? What proof is there that Ishgard bucks the trend of the provided truth of races not liking each other that is so different from the rest of Eorzea?
I'm just saying that - if the idea that Ishgard has a racist society is conjecture due to lack of evidence, then so too is saying that they aren't without also providing evidence.
