Well, this was funny enough to end up in the All feed of other instances, so I bet a lot of people didn’t even notice it was posted in a UK instance (I certainly didn’t).
As for the downvotes, it’s probably due to pretty much the same reason as why as time goes by the probability of an American making a comment talking about America on a post in an English-language forum about a place other than America, becomes 100%, as I explained above: basically as the former probability becomes 100%, so does the probability that somebody by now well and trully fed up with such posts by Americans pops-up and starts downvoting anything in the least way seeming to justify it, since the two are correlated.
I did reference this in another comment further down.
I don’t blame Americans for it. It’s natural. Even though it’s a UK instance, we don’t always check where we are
Edit: Not sure why you being downvoted for this.

It’s only natural ;)
