You've confused the 'national' part of the SNP with 'nationalist.'
The SNP are civic nationalists and have absolutely nothing to do with flag-waving xenophobia. It's a belief in freedom, equality, tolerance, individual rights and is absolutely the opposite of British and English nationalism.

I don't think I have. Did you read the two pages prior to your post? I'd love to believe that's true but...
Freedom: An integrated ID database with everyone given their own Unique Citizen Reference Number?
Tolerance: Gagging rules on their own MPs? A 'you're either with us or against us' attitude which is creating divisions within families?
Equality: Failing to name a single redistributive policy?

If we're agreed that the SNP are bad but could be the least worst option and nationalism (synonyms: patriotism, patriotic sentiment, flag-waving, xenophobia, chauvinism, jingoism) is also bad then sure :P
