Sure! I just think that this particular flavor of enthusiasm often serves as a slippery slope towards nationalism, and is often intended that way.

Which is why I see it as a rather toxic kind of mentality. There are many things to be enthusiastic about - people's unity, new discoveries and achievements, or simply your cat coming for hugs.

None of them have terrible potential outcomes.
