A young German activist dubbed the “anti-Greta” is seeking asylum in the United States after being hit with a wave of Antifa death threats over her political views and free speech championing.
Naomi Seibt, 25, recently filed the petition for political asylum — in a move she says was supported by Elon Musk — amid fears she will be killed or be thrown in prison if she returns to her native country.
Seibt, who became a darling of the right when she was just a teen due to her outspoken views on immigration and climate change, told Fox News she has faced vile threats “for years.”
“In 2024, I found out that I had been spied on by German intelligence for years. Simultaneously, I keep receiving death threats from Antifa,” she said.
“I went to the German police, and they told me that they can’t do anything about it as long as I have not actually been raped or killed.”
“I am not getting protection from the German government even though I am at major risk of potentially being killed,” she added.
Seibt, who was tapped by a US conservative think tank in 2020 to be its poster girl, said she quickly became a target after she was pegged as a foil to climate crusader Greta Thunberg.
“I had started becoming known and internationally recognized as the anti-Greta Thunberg in 2020,” she said.
“I was barely 19 years old and never expected to be recognized as a right-wing figure. The German media called me the anti-Greta, they demonize me as the anti-Greta, like an anti-Christ for Greta Thunberg,” she continued.
“I’m Naomi Seibt and want to be recognized as who I am because I’m not just some puppet poster figure for the right wing.”
Meanwhile, Seibt said that Musk had privately offered her support as she pushes to become an American citizen.
“Elon has been terrified to go to Europe and knows that there is an extremely high threat and has confirmed this to me personally,” she said, adding she started interacting with the billionaire on X last year.
“That’s when I made the decision to apply for asylum myself. He gave me his approval for that.”
