The flag shouldn't be flying on state buildings, but leave historically themed art and media out of this.

Your comment makes a lot of assumptions and appears to me to be painting half the country (probably the south) as racists. This is a bigoted narrow minded attitude.
Even Kanye West has a line of clothing with the confederate flag, do you think he's part of the KKK?
I find the flying of the confederate flag in real life reprehensible, but censoring a civil war game using it as a symbol of the confederate armed forces? I'm not sure that makes sense.
So, until they change their opinion, or a game company decides it's worth it and takes them to court, game companies just end up censoring themselves in advance so they don't have to deal with it in the first place.
² As mentioned here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9777854 , it was for example fine in the movie Iron Sky.
When I search online and find links to Amazon with such items, clicking through shows an error message/item removed.
Am I just bad at searching or is this actually a thing? Hilarious.
Edit: Holy shit, it's actually a thing; eBay too. When did Americans become so pro-censorship? I wish Amazon wasn't so critical to buying everything otherwise I'd cancel prime and drop them for being so moronic.
