A gathering of an anti-immigrant group planned for this weekend in Canaan prompted someone to distribute an anonymous postcard calling the meeting a “white supremacist picnic.”

The label is misleading and has led to confusion, said Tom Kawczynski, an administrator of the Facebook group Maine for Mainers, which describes itself as being “for U.S. citizens who believe our government’s primary and singular responsibility is to our own people.”

Kawczynski, who was fired from his job as Jackman town manager in 2018 for his racist beliefs, said the group is against immigrants and refugees coming to Maine, but disputed the white supremacist label, even though in one post made on the Facebook page this week he said many members are “pro-white.”

Rep. Shelley Rudnicki, R-Fairfield, said she joined the group not knowing what it was and immediately left after a reporter told her about Kawczynski’s past in Jackman.

1. Odd, Kawczynski doesn't sound like a Native American name.

2. And that is not Maine's State Flag behind him.

It's based in the confederate flag.

And the invitation sent out to the neighbors stated “Casual dress (no robes or hood required),”

3. He's not even a Mainer. He's from away.

He moved to Maine from Arizona, took a job with the town of Jackman, Maine, then got fired for his white supremacist views. A true "Maine for Mainers" group would kick him out.

4. Yup

[Bettie]

5. So, white supremacists are now

wanting to be called...what? Nazis? Neo-Klansmen?

And, based on some of the comments referenced in the article, they'd be happy to accept white immigrants, so yeah, just a Klan Picnic!

6. Town of Jackman, ME already kicked out his sorry ass

but he refuses to leave the state. And now he starts his all-white 'Maine for Mainers' He needs to go back to Arizona where he came from.

Says this Mainer.

[VOX]

7. This dipshit also "writes" self-published hate-screeds like, "The Coming Civil War"...

Found this cretin on Amazon, he must fancy himself as a new Joseph Goebbels, or some such.

Here are a couple of terrifically dismissive one-star reviews on Amazon:

Just another nazi

”Soon after that, I learned Kawczynski’s “#TraditionalWife,” Dana Steele, a.k.a. “Snow White,” is also a hardcore Gabber, one with even more virulent views. By 10 a.m. I’d found the couple’s Christmas e-card: a photo of Adolf Hitler with the message, “We’re having a white Christmas in Maine.” It only got uglier from there. Post after post expressed their disdain for all people of color, feminists, liberals, Jews, and anyone who isn’t strictly heterosexual (“White is the new straight,” Kawczynski wrote in one post). I also found conversations encouraging other haters — e.g., Gabbers with swastika avatars — to move to Maine and help make New Albion a reality."


Another far right nazi vomiting his wit and wisdom

I picked up a copy of this at a yard sale for $2.00 and blew thru it in a couple of evenings. Its typical of the hate propaganda being thrown around by red state America's Russian elected president, his state propaganda tv network and especially by his clueless flock.

8. Hey it's just a picnic and people have those all the time

[mainer]

9. I assume they'll be basketweaving and hunting with homemade arrowheads

and chopping wood with a hand axe since...

"The group typically meets about once a month to “protect the culture and way of life Maine has enjoyed for centuries."

Oh, wait. That would be the centuries-old culture and way of life ofthe native Americans who got here first.
