When Your Name Gets Hijacked by Your Ideological Opposite

Have you ever Googled yourself and found someone else living a version of your life-but twisted into something unrecognizable? For Naomi Klein, this wasn't just an awkward moment at a cocktail party. Her "doppelganger," fellow author Naomi Wolf, didn't just share her first name and Jewish heritage-she shared her audience, her publisher type, even her signature big hair. Both wrote influential feminist-adjacent books in the 1990s that challenged power structures. But while Klein continued investigating corporate capitalism and climate change, Wolf veered into dangerous territory: claiming Edward Snowden might be a government plant, suggesting Ebola outbreaks were orchestrated, and eventually becoming a leading voice in COVID-19 conspiracy theories. When the pandemic hit, the stakes skyrocketed. Twitter's algorithm began autocompleting Klein's name when people searched for Wolf. Every misattribution now associated Klein with claims that vaccines were "tyrannical platforms" ushering in Chinese-style social control, or that public health measures paralleled Nazi Germany. The irony cut deep: Klein had built her career critiquing corporate branding in *No Logo*, yet now found herself desperately trying to "defend her brand" against someone else's contamination of it.
