First, the blowback against the "Betsy Ross flag" has nothing to do with Betsy personally. It's due to the fact that the flag has been appropriated by white nationalist and hate groups over the years, not to the extent of the Confederate battle flag, but still significantly.
This isn't the first time in recent history this has happened. Before the 1920's the swastika was considered a good luck symbol and a lot of products, including Coca-cola, used it in their advertising. Now, of course, no one uses it.
Place the blame where it should be, on the white nationalists, not on those who are offended by their appropriation of the Betsy Ross flag.
