Do you feel people only hate Rachel because of Lea Michele?

So, as we know, Rachel Berry is one of the most divisive characters in television history. And as we know in 2020, word about her actress Lea Michele being racist and being a total monster to the people around her began to circulate, which seems to fuel the Rachel hate more as people now believe Rachel was pretty much Lea Michele.

Now, I'm aware Rachel was already unpopular, even before everything about Lea came out.
