I think it's the other way around and there's a natural urge for intelligent creatures to feel more important and entitled than others. Kids don't understand their brains much and while compassion is natural, too, it often has to be reinforced.
Not to mention in this case, kids are shielded from consequences and even the victim's true reaction. I "bullied" a kid once in like 3rd grade and watching his smile fade to a frown killed any desire to continue. If it was just over voice in a video game, I probably would have kept going
It's a self-esteem issue. If you don't feel self-worth, you create it artificially by bringing others down.
