I think the naivity may be thinking the primary demographics of HN users are American.

It's been shown multiple times[0][1] that the majority of HN users are not American, certainly not 100% (as you assessed further up). It would also be reasonable to assume that not all American HN users work in a graphics card relevant space, or even tech.
