I was watching a music video (name: 思想犯). I've been going through the song and I stumbled upon this ってやつか. What does it mean here, it's not って奴か. I've found a post here about ってやつ vs というもの but I don't think they're the same.

ってやつ vs というもの difference

I don't know about punctuation, so here it is formatted like this:

認められたい 愛したい これが夢ってやつか
何もしなくても叶えよ 早く 僕を満たしてくれ
他人に優しい世間にこの妬みがわかるものか
いつも誰かを殴れる機会を探してる

This is って奴か in kanji. 奴【やつ】 can be a pronoun for both a person and an inanimate object. 奴 sounds masculine and rough. って is short for という here.

これが夢ってやつか。
≈ これが夢というものか。

This is what people call a dream, huh?
This is what dream means, huh?

And this これ refers to what has been just mentioned (認められたい 愛したい).
