That's why we have a text of law and jurists that came up with more rigorous definitions. I basically gave you the shortest tldr of a tldr of the subject. I can only recommend you read up on it more, because this really isn't the censorship tool you make it up to be.
I see how this is used in practice. I don't know about France, but in Poland both sides use that label when convenient, and of course they refer to completely different things, yet always done by their political opponents.
Can you point to any specific cases? You are being very vague and seem to rely on anecdotal evidence.
I won't go this route. If you're planning to label views shared by 30% of voters as "hate speech" then I alredy disagree. Like I said, this is a political position.
