discrimination comes from the word itself, discriminate Discrimination is a treatment or consideration of, or making a distinction favour of or against, person or thing based in the group class or category to which that person or thing belongs rather than on individual merit.
It is kinda like racism, but instead of skin color they judge the person by their appearance, life situation, or "way of living". If they "discriminate" you (or see you) as a person living in a way "lower" than them, they will differentiate you from the people who they think are "higher" than them.
