Yeah, it's definitely racist.

It's a memory of the times of the 1860s and previous years, and, while the flag itself is not disturbing, it carries memories with it that I'm sure plenty of people don't want to remember. Just like in Huck Finn and a bunch of Twain novels, the word '......' is used like 187 times or some shit. Sure, the word is demeaning and racist, but it also carries memories with it and helps you understand the culture better, just like the Confederate flag does. I'm not against absolutely eliminating it, but I'm pretty disturbed by people taking pride in it, after not understanding what it's really about.
