It is the equivalent of people in Germany flying the Nazi flag.

Hey Godwin's Law, fantastic.

The nazi flag has direct negative connotations to it. The confederacy flag has indirect connotations of racism when that's not what it's about. By advocating the removal of the flags you're embracing and cementing this false relation. That causes an indirect revision of history by changing what the Civil War was really about, and simply allows those that do misrepresent the flag to continue doing so, as everyone is going to get their message.
