It's called projection. You accuse an enemy of something that actually applies to you or your team. Heavily used by people on the far right. People also refer to it as "every accusation is a confession".

Like when Musk called that diver a pedophile, when Musk is the actual pedophile.

That's why the accusation seems odd since the antichrist is more likely to come from the Republican party than some random activist. Because this is actually about the Republican party, not Greta.
