Uhm Maryland flag is the coat of arms from the Calvert Family. Maryland was found about 200 years before the Civil War.

And Lord Calvert died in 1632, ten years before Mayland received her first slaves.

If they want to dig for a tie, they have a (very weak) point. The black and gold is Calvert, but the red and white is Crossland. The Crossland was used by Marylanders who fought for the South, and the two were combined in a new flag in 1880 to unite those from opposite sides of the war. Since the goal of the Ctrl-Left is to divide us, I expect them to destroy the Maryland flag specifically because it is a symbol of unity.
