Another great interview ruined by idiotic click-bait title. Whoever decided on that title should be ashamed.

Yes; I think his statement is more trying to describe his own inability to separate the wheat from the chaff; Most startups do fail and he can't differentiate between the good ones and bad ones; And after all, whatsapp was once a startup was it not? I don't believe he is putting down startup founders by his comment.
It's a straight forward sentence, I don't think you can just redefine it's content detached from the words in it.

However, the sentence is not even close to describe the interview and creates a weird focus by making this side topic present in the headline.
