and doctors criticizing the host for"repeatedly spread[ing] misleading and false claims on his podcast, provoking distrust in science and medicine" throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. to exit the platform and told his team that it was because"Spotify is spreading fake information about vaccines." He also said that Spotify can have"[Joe] Rogan or Young. Not both." Mitchell and Young are friends and have both contracted polio as kids before the vaccine became available.

The company said it pulled over 20,000 COVID-related podcast episodes since the beginning of the pandemic. Rogan's show, however, is still very much available. And that includes the controversial episode with Dr. Robert Malone, who claimed that"mass formation psychosis" led people to believe vaccines were effective in fighting COVID-19. Spotify inked an exclusive deal to host thein 2020 and is believed to have paid over $100 million for it.

If that’s your logic for a group of people that lie and cost people their lives, you should not be voting for politicians.

Who tf is Joni Mitchell?

Who?

Who fucking cares?!

F Joe Rogan.

The counter culture hippies of yesterday are the authoritarians today. What a time to be alive.

Thank god she cares about people...Funny with what the colors she's wearing and yet she never batt an eye when Neil Young said about the gays. The irony lol

WHO?

I don't know who thos is... sounds like we are getting a lot of crap music off Spotify. I might subscribe.

who?

Censorship is horrible, it will lead us to authoritarian rule

Imagine if someone would do this, to the federal government, over all the BS and black people they incarcelated over the spam of 40+ years of weed illegality. Y'all a bunch of pawns for assholes in power.

Peace out!

Who?

Hey boomers time is not on your side. Clutching the pearls you can't take with you just confirms who you really are to the rest of us.

Uh, can you list those lies and sources please.

So many people against the 1st amendment

Who?

Canadian artists standing up to misinformation! We need the rest of the world to join in!

Who? No seriously who? Lol these people think they're really sticking it to them but it only shows how close minded and programmed they are

So old hippies are now against free speech & for the establishment? I’m so confused. Rainbow Brite has been at the bottom of the toy box too long.

Who ever she is... she is taking her music from Spotify because she doesn't like what they are doing ? So she cut her own nose of to spite her face....right lol

Joni who?

i am 37 year old.. i even sometimes play some Johnny Cash songs, but i have no clue who she is.... just like the Dude from a few days ago...

Who the hell is this?

Is this Skeletor?

Well, nobody cares…. not really!!!

Please remove that face from the public,Do us a real favor.Old liberals never die,they just burn out from the vial life style of fighting against & rejecting God.Isaiah 32:5-6

Who is Joni Mitchell?

Is there anyone outraged by this that are actually still relevant?

Who is she?

Never heard of him.

Who cares?

Oh no. Who?

This is exactly the legacy these Revolutionary Boomers deserve

She has been a great songwriter and performer. I disagree with her position here. Government forced medication is an establishment wrong. They pulled the safety stops to do the current vax pusher scheme. Trusting the government after they pull the safety hurdles is not my bag.

🤡🤡🤡

So, she’s removing it because of the vaccines, then?

Who?

Ohh FFS! I’ve already upgraded to family subscription after “Neil who?” left. Now I have to get 2nd account.

Who ?

Free speech and a different opinion is not lies.

What lies?

The powers at be are evil. Don't rest assured

Who's Joni Mitchell?

Who cares? The intolerant people can leave all they want

She’s looked at Spotify from both sides now and acted accordingly.

Another person who probably hasn't listened to a single Joe Rogan interview and ironically, as a musician should be defending free speech and art whether she agrees with it or not. Don't let the door hit you on the way out Jonie!

Joni i have 1 favor.......THINK about how YOU fought for the 1st amendment during the Vietnam War!!!! Press freedom is critical. Do you REALLY 100% trust our government to be right? Did you LISTEN to a podcast or just a friend of Neil's?

Ironically, Life will remove Joni Mitchell from Spotify too. Who wins that race?

Man, all these classic, but now irrelevant, stars popping up to get their names back in the public lol. Your time has come and gone!

Who?

Goodbye old man, or I lady? Will not miss u!

nice to see them so-called 60's 'freedom of speech' keeping to thier beliefs Also, why do I think they've not even watched a joerogan podcast. Plus before ranting why not go on his show to ask him to back up thier comments To me, that would be the best and most simple answer

I’m glad to see this happen. Everyone should do their part to stop the spread of misinformation

Joni Mitchell never lies

Who are those old crazy people, just who?

Neil not so Young and Joni from 1884... Cancel culture, by long gone relics from the past. They prefer censorship over public debate..

Good. No more racists allowed.
