The humor isn’t recognized because the humor isn’t there. To be funny there has to be a setup, a punchline, some kinda joke structure. Humor isn’t just saying false things…
Imagine a comedian saying this on stage, how many laughs would that get?

We’ve all seen dumber things that are real. Juicero is my personal favorite example.
The humor is attained afterwards when one reads the comments who take it seriously, they become the punchline.
That completes the circuit. It's a nice setup.
