Well, he's still alive, so thankfully we can ask him if was just coincidentally waiving the confederate flag around while preaching hate speech against blacks. It's also theoretically possible he was wearing the British-colony era Rhodesian flag for reasons other than preferring the country under white rule. Maybe he just liked the design and colors of the old Rhodesian flag better than the current Zimbabwe flag, and it had nothing to do with his feelings about segregation).

I suppose both are possible but I wouldn't bet on it.

The larger point I’m trying to make, is that it seems clear to me that the percentage of people who fly that flag for purely racist reasons is extremely small.

You’ve got a wing-nut here and folks are trying to extrapolate meaning from his lifestyle which is pretty much pointless.

If this was truly evidence everyone that owned a Dixie Flag (Rebel flat or whatever) was a violent racist it would be far more apparent than than this.

Where’s all the evidence that these folks are violent racists, or even racists at all across the board?
