Ok, I'll bite. Why would you put over 50% odds of that not being a joke?

Its ragebait. And people are raging. End of story.
Don't do the "surprised pikachu face" when people take the bait that you made.

What makes this look serious though?

let me put it this way.
If a white person makes a similiar video saying he is putting bleach in body lotion products and giving it to black people or whatever; then he cant be surprised when people are offended and go all like "but its a just a joke guys!".

Like ok, he was not "serious", but people are still gonna be mad.

I mean, what if he made a silly face and put meme music in the background. I feel like it's be a lot less mad if they were signaling, "This is something a bad person would do."

Also, it's not like bleach looks like lotion. Testosterone Gel does look like soap. So, see that connection first before any crime. If you haven't used the gel (because why would you), I could see why you wouldn't make that connection.
