(noun) - Traditionally describes speech which denigrated a group of people based on ethnicity, race, religion, sex, or other characteristic. Starting in approximately 2006 this definition was largely expanded to include the following:

2) Any speech from a person the listener hates, even if true.
3) Dissenting speech that is heard by a hateful person even if true.
4) Any speech from a person or political party a person does not identify with.
5) Any description or condemnation of "mostly peaceful" actions of a person or group of people.

(formerly free speech) A term used typically by a left leaning individual to dismiss an argument they do not like or can't think of a rebuttal for. If you cannot be proven right with logic, reducing your opponent's argument and character is a good way to come out virtuous and save face. Continuing to label things as hateful reduces the idea space of things you need to comprehend, making it easier to recite answers for arguments you don't have a fully formed opinion on. Reducing language is the best way to limit the amount of things you need to learn. If quantum mechanics class was too difficult, simply label it hate speech and there's no need to learn the formulas!
