The notion that Catholics deify Mary, or worship her, or think she is the Savior, etc.—All these notions are the accusations of anti-Catholic bigots.
Read the Catechism of the Catholic Church and the Catechism of the Council of Trent from cover to cover, and you will not find a scintilla of a hint of a suggestion that the Catholic Church teaches any of these preposterous notions about Mary.

It is not the teaching of the Bible either. Whether it is official church doctrine or not is irrelevant. Catholics do exactly the things you deny above. Feel free to chalk that up to disobedience to church doctrine just as they often disobey other official teachings. But it is a matter of fact that several Catholics on this forum have repeatedly argued for Mary to have co-Redeemer status with Christ.
Catholics are well known for the religious icons of Mary and others that they bow and pray toward.
The common Catholic instruction of saying hail Mary’s is yet another example. The very term “mother of God” is an abomination which I’m sure would break the heart of the real Mary if God allows her any awareness of this tragedy.
Opposing false doctrine does not make one an anti-Catholic bigot any more than opposing the homosexual agenda makes us anti-gay, or gay bashers / haters. Does opposing things that cause people to go to hell mean we hate people?
