People have attached one meaning to the flag, but there was much more to it than just slavery.  Unfortunately, in the world of political correctness, we're only allowed to fixate on those things that are most offensive. 
I'd be fine with that as well. And you are correct in that some are using whatever piece fits a certain agenda. The flag has many different meanings. 

 

I went to college in Charleston. I went to a school where the confederate flag has been a huge symbol. There are grads at odds on what to do with them on campus. It's pretty sad to watch the back and forth actually.
