Again, that's not how connotation and symbolism works. The origin doesn't matter if the meaning has been superceded - that's why you can't adopt a Nazi salute as a gesture in support of saving the whales or whatever.
The meaning hasn't been superceded so your point is moot.
 

Seriously, on the England support thing (and if you feel *English* fair enough if that's your thing and you dont view it all as a stick to beat non-white English people with...which many do support the national team in order to do), but it really is a sign that you've given up on your own team ever being successful when you lump in and seek reflected glory from them.

Even after 26 years of f.a. from Everton trophy-wise I couldn't demean myself by joining the ranks of Cockneys and Geordie mutants who throw their hand in with that lot. Sorry. It's just not for me.
