Yup. New England is unique in that its rural areas except for northern Maine tend to be blue. I’d assume that it is because it still votes as if the religious culture war was still going on and that NE is fairly secular.
The urban-rural divide is very strong in many areas. You just need to drive for 5 miles in one direction from a confusing mixed suburb to a very blue or very red area.

Even northern Maine is kinda more libertarian-esque.

Indeed. It was an extremly insecure website.
So far the biggest security leak seems that all pictures and videos uploaded on parler weren't autopurged from their exif data which is an extreme security issue from parlers side itself.
Theres also talk that becoming a verified user on Parler required uploading an Driver ID or so. I am not sure if the crawlers were able to access this data somehow. The hacker had in any case access to higher privilege functions in the network. Ontop of that parlers internal structure and setup seem to have been rather... shady.

Moreover ethnats in US don’t have much computing capabilities. Very few of the major ethnat tools in US are actually owned by ethnats.

Remember when Ron Paul was the quintessential example of a detached from reality politician people made fun of?
Pepperidge Farm remembers.

From what I gathered their attitude towards Parler and it's lack of sophistication appears to be negative.
It is not surprising. Tech nerds are relatively unlikely to support ethnats in any society since the former are generally educated nerds while the latter are generally uneducated jocks. The former simply tend to see the latter as potential threats.

Theres some very savvy technerds amongst the far-right. But they aren't the ones running the show on platforms like Parler. Which is predominantly trumpist.
Altough recently I'd say the barriers between the different groups and factions have been dissolved in the past weeks and months. During the Capitol storm and #StopTheSteal they all have become, temporarily, one big happy family.

Also that the guy who created it is a politics nerd, so he doesn’t ban random things because "they’re fascism/communism"

i would love to be basking in the warm afterglow of an obama presidency again, coupled with a republican electoral and reputational collapse, and i'm sure as fuck the gop at this point does too
