The Alt-Wrong have got themselves an Anti-Greta by the name of Naomi Seibt.
The 19-year-old German is a Climate Change Denier and Islamophobe. She is also apparently a member of and speaks to the far-right Alternative für Deutschland, an organisation associated with Brexit's very own Nigel Farage.
Apparently Seibt will be addressing the conservative CPAC this week in the USA along side Trump and Pence.

The organic explanation is probably the most likely.
Young girl sees people acting cultishly around another young girl in large part because she's a young girl. She has divergent views, decides to start expressing herself publicly. She gets some fans, and then of course special interests rapidly fawning over her.

Nope. This "anti-Greta" has been quite deliberately cooked up by the fossil fuel industry, via the Heartland Institute.
She has been cynically manufactured by the oil industry like some hollow, auto-tuned commercial pop singer by a record company.
That would make Greta the self-made musician who worked her own way up from nothing on just her own talent, determination and resources.
Also, it says a lot about the alt-right in that about half the commentary about these two on the internet is right wingers comparing the physical attractiveness of the two girls- very often the same people who like to argue that Greta's words are worthless because she's "just a kid" are now gleefully sexualising both her and her right-wing counterpart. Keep it classy, alt-righters!
