Hoch･schul･statistik = high school statistics and Gesetz is related to the English word set.
Honestly I don't get why Hochschulstatistikgesetz of all words would make one say that German is not a real language. Like, I'm not beyond laughing at the Norwegian words for speedbumps and professionals among other things, nor laughing at the fact that the Dutch for "fucking in the kitchen" is "neuken in de keuken"... But there's nothing immediately funny to me about the word Hochschulstatistikgesetz. Is it just that the word is long? That it has the letter sequence ⟨chsch⟩ in it? I don't get it.
neuken in de keuken is fucking hilarious, and so is geef me een klap papa. English is full of dumb funny shit, I'm sure, but that doesn't mean Dutch and German aren't.
Petition to change German orthography into that weird American phonetic spelling so the yanks will not be too confused about other languages than American existing:
As I was saying, if "it has long words with sound/letter combinations that monolingual Anglophones find hard to read/pronounce" is the only criterion for "this language is too funny-sounding to be real", then I guess Nuxalk must be absolutely hilarious.

lmao Dutch is fucking hilarious, and if anyone disapproves of me laughing at it, then... we hebben een serieus probleem

Unnecessary compounding of words making them harder to read. It’s basically “Highereducationstatisticsact”.
It's only harder to read if you aren't used to it, dear.
It’s objectively a loss of information and more difficult to read
Git gud
It also gives information that these words belong together in a single word
Could be accomplished with hyphens like a dignified language

Almost every language in the world uses breaks and spaces between words. It’s the Germans who are wrong
Chinese, Japanese, and Korean don't.
Or if you're dyslexic.

Either keep your compound words to a reasonable length, or get rid of spaces entirely and have one word per paragraph.

Probably because the word looks like it was made by bashing your head on the keyboard

Like it or not, German is one of those languages where the spelling of a word actually gives you a very good idea of how it is pronounced.
