>the use of humour, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule

But it doesn't use any of the above. It's just a factual description of conditions under which people enslaved by hunger live and how we* benefit from their misfortune. It's not even exaggeration, it downplays how much we* benefit from hunger.

*in general richer people(not rich, just richer than exploited masses)

1: a literary work holding up human vices and follies to ridicule or scorn

This is definitely a work holding people's vices and follies to scorn
