> So the right wing overuses flag imagery, and as a result the left starts to view the flag as problematic? That's a Democrat/liberal problem.

Independents too, which is larger that either the Democratic party or Republican party in the US.

It's only the Republicans that have a positive view of it at this point.

When you do awful shit and wrap yourself in symbology, surprise, good things like swastikas suddenly become symbols of hate and oppression that were not before. This is a pattern that repeats itself throughout history and across country lines.
