It's a radical cultural revolution no doubt but what the heck does that have to do with the Confederates? Or can northerners not be socons anymore?
The Stars and Bars have a significance that goes beyond regional pride or nationalism. The flag is a symbol of opposition to an overbearing government hostile to your way of life. SoCon Yankees would do well to be troubled by the recent trampling of the Confederate flag.
Actually, many of the "Northern socons" were descendants of folks who hated the Confederacy and were fiercely pro-union, believing Southern slavery was a moral evil and an abomination to God.
Do you really think Northern Calvinists and conservative Catholics back in the day would've flied the rebel flag?
