Stewart Peters[1] (born April 1, 1980) is an American alt-right internet personality,[2] white nationalist,[3] political commentator, Holocaust denier,[4] and conspiracy theorist. He is known for promoting COVID-19 misinformation and conspiracy theories,[10] as well as anti-LGBTQ, antisemitic, and white supremacist beliefs.[3]
Having previously been a rapper and bounty hunter,[11][12] Peters launched the Stew Peters Show in 2020, which airs on weekdays. His show routinely features conspiracy theories about governmental organizations, such as the CDC. His guests have included established proponents of conspiracy theories such as Paul Gosar,[13] Mark Meadows,[14] and L. Lin Wood.[15] In 2022, Peters released the anti-vaccine film Died Suddenly, and a subsequent 2023 film titled Final Days.
