I would be wary of trying to use Google autocomplete for making any important decisions. Until they blacklisted showing autocomplete results for queries that look like "Why are <ethnicity>..." or "<ethnicity> are ...", you could get some interesting but certainly not trustworthy results.

They said it was informative, they didn't say anything about making important decisions.

It shows you what is often searched for which is informative, even if in that case it shows that racism is common (which arguably is informative within itself, albeit depressing).

Personally I like doing "[Something] Vs " to see what people consider are competitors. For example: "hacker news vs " returns:

- "hacker news vs reddit"

- "hacker news vs slashdot"

- "hacker news vs code"

etc.
