A recent Instagram post from American Songwriter brought several of Mitchell's past comments to light, including a quote from a 2010 interview with the Los Angeles Times in which she called Dylan a "plagiarist," adding, “Everything about Bob is a deception. We are like night and day, he and I." ( also referenced Mitchell's claim in the book Both Sides Now that Dylan "never brushes his teeth.")

"Jealousy. Bob is the goat," added a second person, with someone else agreeing, "Joni Mitchell has a professional jealousy complex. Dylan was insanely successful but she was not."
It's absolutely true that Mitchell has given Dylan plenty of praise as well, even crediting him for the influence his work had on her early career.
“I started scraping my own soul more and more and got more humanity in it. It scared the singer-songwriters around me; the men seemed to be nervous about it, almost like [Bob] Dylan plugging in and going electric. Like, ‘Does this mean we have to do this now?’ But over time, I think it did make an influence. It encouraged people to write more from their own experience," Mitchell added.
"I like a lot of Bob's songs," she said, adding, "Musically, he's not very gifted. He borrowed his voice from old hillbillies. He's got a lot of borrowed things...He's invented a character to deliver his songs."
