The problem is that the definition of "hate speech" and "racism" have drifted wildly according to some (mainly on the left). I have seen people on the left accuse 100% of Trump voters of being racist. I have seen people

I owned a Pixel 1 and a Pixel 3 and they were two of the worst phones I have ever owned. You couldn't pay me to take another Pixel phone. I now rock a much cheaper Motorola which is fantastic.
