First of all, he doesn't use the Japanese flag as his own flag. It is just similiar. And above, they said it symbolized a new era. It doesn't mean they're using the Japanese as the "bad guys." It means they're using it to symbolize a new era of equality - which they say again and again within the show.

So, the Earth Kingdom is "China," so why would being Chinese make you proud of the Fire Nation?

Also, I think that the Equalists are not the "Bad guys." I believe that they are just trying to gain some equality, just as did the Blacks, Woman, and Gay rights people. This does not make them the "bad guys" especially not because they are maybe Communist. There are innocent equalists and there are bad equalists. There are also innocent benders and bad benders. That doesn't mean that the benders are "bad guys" either.
