The reason why so much antipathy for the CBF is because, unlike the United States flag, it represents a movement that fought to preserve and expand slavery at a time with the civilized world was turning away from it.

WRONG! The south fought to NOT be bankrupted by the north and dictated to in how to live their lives! The Freepers who disparage the Confederaate Battle Flag also scream about Washingtons dictates today. YOU CAN’T have it BOTH WAYS! 10th Amendment Yes, or No???????????????????????????????????///
So then all those Southern leaders of the period who said it was about slavery where just fooling with us?
WRONG! In 1859 the south was flush with cash. Well, the slavers were at any rate. The rank~n~file were scratching out an existence per usual. But there was no fear of bankruptcy - none. And it was more a matter of them telling everyone else how to live their lives and insisting that the free states enforce the subjugation of slaves at a time when they were shedding themselves of the Peculiar Institution.
