Is this a good thing I’m looking at or a bad thing? I don’t get it but then again, I’m not a programmer.

Java is a programming language that is notorious for being verbose, the joke is that you need a massively wide monitor to view it without the text being cut off

I don't understand why people don't break stuff like this up with newlines

We would. And we'd tend not to be using such verbose variable names. Avoiding abbreviation in the method and type-names is idiomatic though.
