DC: The CEO of a biotech company, MaxWell Biosciences, explicitly stated his intention to discriminate against hiring men at his medical startup on Monday.
The company, which performs bioengineering and research into Alzheimer’s Disease and dementia, has the backing of high-profile investors, The Daily Caller has learned.
Company CEO Joshua McClure stated in a now-deleted tweet that he was actively seeking women to employ — at the cost of ignoring male talent who apply to work. The tweet was not well-received by critics who accused him of discriminating against men. more
SNIP: 1. What if some ‘man’ was the person who could cure dementia or Alzheimer’s and you turned him away?
2. How would you like to be ‘that woman’ who everyone thinks got the job simply because her qualification was being a woman?
“Bio Tech start up. The company, which performs bioengineering and research into Alzheimer’s Disease and dementi”
I smell FEDERAL GRANT MONEY.
I wonder how this CEO would feel if next week he was fired and replaced by someone whose sole qualification was that she had a vagina?
I hope this company has a good legal department, since every male that applies and doesn’t get hired now has a case that they were discriminated against based on sex/gender.
i am not sexist or racist- I dislike everyone equally so does it matter who gets the job just as long as a cure is found for the disease’s ? If a family member or friend had the disease I could care less who found the cure….
Here’s their “Team”. Stanford and Bezerkley.

And yes they are getting OUR tax dollars.
“How To Shut Down Your Startup 101”
I hope their angels are prepared to spend their startup years in court and the contracted CFO has a line item in their budget for the the big bucks for settlements.
Although female is a protected class, it remains illegal to base hiring decisions on sex or gender. Sorry Mr Snowflake CEO you FAIL the “Does it work?” test,
Another day; another scam.
Brad is right.
Some politician is shoving money into this scam – and taking a cut through projected stock appreciation or through gov’t “guaranteed loans” thereon.
Follow the money.
Stinks just like the “Green Energy” scams of the Obola days.
