Right-wing free speech advocate seeks US asylum

Naomi Seibt has accused the German government of targeting her for her political views while Antifa reportedly sends her death threats

German influencer and free speech advocate Naomi Seibt has officially applied for asylum in the US, claiming she is being persecuted in Germany for her political views and support for the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. 

The 25-year-old, who has been dubbed the “anti-Greta” for her opposition to feminism and climate-change narratives, announced in a post on X on Wednesday that she is “the first German applying for asylum under [US President Donald Trump] due to political persecution.” 

In her post, Seibt said she has faced intelligence surveillance and state media defamation, claiming her communications have been intercepted and her family harassed by reporters working for public broadcasters. 

She also claimed to be receiving death threats from Antifa, which she said the German police have ignored because “no physical harm had occurred yet.” Seibt stated that while Trump has “correctly” designated Antifa as a terrorist organization, the German government “silently condones” their attacks on regular citizens, treating them as “soldiers for their agenda.”
