I consider myself a nationalist utilitarian. And i dont come close to supporting this.

There are many different types of nationalism, and not all of them bad. Zionism in itself is a form of nationalism. But, perhaps more importantly, is the viewpoint of some people with regards to Zionism and tying it to the US identity. The reason I included that is because this law takes that approach as it smacks down free speech to express disdain not just for Israeli actions, but the US support thereof as well.
