Luke LeBrun @lukelebrun.ca · Jun 17 This Eric Lombardi kid sounds more like he’s running to be a subreddit moderator rather than Ontario Liberal Party leader

He sounds like a smart-ass little prick. Exactly what the centre left doesn’t need.
He's just more clear and detailed in his communications.
Never heard of him until this post. He seems to show leadership, is a housing advocate. A good thing! Is well educated and community orientated. Now under attack for what pray tell? Because he worked in the tech industry, uses social media? What is the beef?
Hopefully he will push more voters towards the NDP. @maritstilesndp.bsky.social is the best choice for ON. I had never heard of this guy until now.
With candidates like this, Ontario will forever be doomed to Dougie Trump
The very fact he's active on Ex-Twitter should be disqualifying on its own.
If the OLP choose this smug asshole, they will deserve the thrashing Ontario hands them.
Lombardi comes across as genuinely awful.
Checked out his campaign website. Definitely needs to hire a consultant, 'cause the picture he's using of himself makes him look like either he's still learning to shave, or he's still going through puberty.
Eric Lombardi would make an outstanding high-seniority moderator on r/canada. I'm sure he'll be respectful and rational. /s I read that tweet exchange. LMAO he's melting down hard over @rachelgilmore.bsky.social outing him as a billionaire's plant. It's glorious.
Let him lead, then we can all just pretend the OLP doesn't exist. All they do now is split the votes against Dougie. We need a united left if we're ever gonna beat Ford nation. Hell at this point we should demand a orange, red and green coalition against the cons.
Someone sent me his Reddit account Luke and you have no idea how right you are 😩
The open disgust towards female journalists should be disqualifying. Should be. Not in the times we live in. Too many white male bruised egos floating around.
He actually does have a Reddit account and he was getting hot in the politics subreddits a decade ago
His campaign launch video is deeply off putting. Kid should be trying to win a local race and build a machine, not leapfrog to leader. He reads as too online and too weird.
Ew, what is with that patronizing, sarcastic tone. Gross.
I find it interesting that Lombardi has both a Twitter and a Bluesky account, yet only lashed out at Rachel on Twitter, where being a dick towards a female journalist is likely to met with thunderous approval and “Yeah bro!”-s, as opposed to Bluesky where he’s more likely to be questioned for it.
