You can't just disassociate the new meaning of a symbol because it's original meaning was something else.
That's like saying the swastika shouldn't be associated with nazis because it's original meaning was a symbol of the sun.
Too many people look at that flag an associate it with racism now. The meaning has shifted. It's not something that will be undone.
