No, it's called hyperbole.

To normal people: be nice to kids because they need the support and encouragement to grow into stable adults with a healthy sense of self worth.

To the selfish people: be nice to kids because you never know when you might need their mercy in the future.

I’d like to know more context. Without it, it makes the poster seem like a traitor.

You don't get to choose. The numbers go into a spreadsheet. An answer comes out.

Yeah, my reading of this is that this poster took particular personal satisfaction from denying an application, but it didn't cross my mind that there was any element of actual control or decisionmaking.

It's like when someone cuts you off and then crashes their car. You didn't cause the crash, and a crashed car is a much more severe punishment than simple rudeness would deserve, but you can still derive satisfaction from the sequence of events.
