Agreed. It always makes me think of Nascar, lol. But the other half represents a pro-Confederate family, and I'd love to hear someone explain how the city of Baltimore has continued to accept that. "Bigger fish to fry" and "not wanting to alienate racists" is all I can come up with.
I think with a lot of stuff like that, most people don't care. Like I assume it's the red and white side that you're talking about but idk, and for sure I never see racists flying either set of colors which is why I think no one cares.
The Confederate flag didn't fall out of favor primarily due to its meaning in the 1800's, but moreso due to the contemporary associations.
