Oh, please. The Ramayana and Mahabharata endorse caste based on birth. Vedas are irrelevant to how Hindusim is practiced on a day to day basis.

It is mentioned in the Brihadaranyaka Upanishads that brahmins were born from the head of the Purusha and the Sudras from His feet.

Dalits are even outside of these four varnas.
