About Naomi Seibt
Naomi Seibt is a internet personality, YouTuber and German political activist aligned with the far right. She is best known as a climate change denier and for her opposition to activist Greta Thunberg. Until April 2020, she was employed by the Heartland Institute, an American conservative public policy institutions, which marketed her as the "anti-Greta".
In September 2017, Seibt graduated from Gymnasium St. Mauritz Bischöfl, a Catholic high school. She achieved a first place in physics in local regional competition of the Jugend forscht junior division, called "Students Experiment", and second place in mathematics. She is a self-identified libertarian and anarcho-capitalist.
In 2020, the Neue Zürcher Zeitung described Seibt as a "right-wing Youtuber" who "attacks climate science in her videos".
Seibt's influence was boosted in 2024 by Elon Musk reposting her videos on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. Musk re-tweeted a Seibt video calling on CDU leader Friedrich Merz to ally with the AfD instead of a German centre-left party like the Greens, with Musk saying "Only the AfD can save Germany." She has also been accused of promoting white nationalist ideas on X by directly engaging with groups such as QAnon, along with related accounts and channels that propagate conspiracy theories. She has likewise endorsed figures directly associated with white nationalist movements, supporting their views.
She has also been found to spread disinformation on X, including several false claims linked to far-right and white nationalist online groups across multiple platforms, such as COVID-19 and climate-related content. A number of academic and journalistic publications have emphasised the links in her ideological beliefs between climate change denialism, white nationalism, and culture wars (including Islamophobia). In 2020, she was also found to be promoting disinformation, and acknowledging far-right conspiracy theories propagated by groups related to QAnon.
In November 2025 Seibt announced to have requested Asylum in the United States, based on INA section 208.
