Condescend. Act like their superior in every possible way, but be polite about it because you know they can't help themselves. Find pseudo-scientific reasons that they've failed, and as a nation they've failed quite a bit. Somebody with the Encyclopedia can summarize the bullet points there.
This allows you to make a patronizing character who thinks, perhaps even quite reasonably in their view, that if only the Ala Mhigans behaved differently they'd be more successful. It's probably not a hatred that's going to come up much in the way you've presented it in your provided examples, but will be seen as more insidious by many.
That makes sense. Like how the high-born Ishgardians treat the low-born ones. I'll have to keep this in mind -
