Dear white people: is it possible for a flag to symbolize different things?

Not following you.
The symbol can mean whatever you'd like it to, but that doesn't erase it's history.
Nobody is trying to rewrite the history of the American flag by seperating its imagery from military service. There're trying to amend it to mean a country worth fighting for

possibility one is that a flag means multiple things in that it means different things to different people
so to a vet it could mean military, etc. and to a hoodrat it could mean oppression
so to kaepernick it means oppression, and not honoring veterans or however else a vet might see it. fine. so the confederate flag can represent southern pride to the southerner, the other associations notwithstanding.
possibility two is that a flag represents multiple things to everyone and some people choose to respond to particular associations or prioritize some associations over others.
so kaepernick prioritizes the oppression view. fine. southerners can prioritize the southern pride view of the confederate flag.

you're not giving equal treatment here if you say that we have to respond to the confederate flag in one particular way because of one of its particular associations, but don’t give the us flag the same treatment.

Only the very wealthy owned slaves, not exactly a "moral" issue that benefited the impoverished men who actually fought in the war.
The South is luckily that they weren't roundly massacred after the war

Yes. For example, in a war, the friendly side will see a flag as a symbol of one's own side, while the enemy will see the it as a symbol of the enemy's side.
That's why it's a little troubling that libs all seem to see America as the enemy, and cheer it's downfall.
