“Building a real business without fraud means it’s nearly impossible to reach ‘unicorn status’ in a few years time,” tweeted Winnie CEO Sara Mauskopf, whose company offers a marketplace for childcare.

Can't get ahead unless you cheat and commit fraud. Says a lot about capitalism right there.

No, it says you cannot reach unicorn status, which in itself is a stupid goal.

I get that the quote is that specifically, but that seems to have been the goal for a lot of Venture Capital however stupid it was. In addition, a certain sect of the population put billionaires, like Musk and Bezos on a pedestal, like their intelligence is the only thing that got them to where they are, and not being born decently rich and creating an empire of exploitation to esrn their billions.
