>why would I lose sleep over how incensed you supposedly would be
I'm not incensed; I'm pointing out this attitude and commentary is likely a negative to your getting hired if employers discover it.
>You wouldn't find out until I found a new job someplace else, right?
Unless some previous employer mentioned it, or a google or background found it (or this comment).
It's pretty common to run all potential hires through a background check service, especially as the value of the hire increases. I know places I've done hiring has not hired people based on their past discoverable behavior.
