The grid isn't being taxed by induction stoves lmao.


When we lost power for two days in the TX Freeze 2021, we were damn glad to have a gas stove. It was 43 degrees inside my house, but we kept warm with blankets, gas fireplace (which doesn't give off nearly the same heat as a real wood one) and heating up hot liquids, as well as gumbo and soup from the freezer.

With an electric stove, I'd have had to be outside in the sub freezing weather trying heat shite up on my Bayou Classic.

People wanting to ban gas stoves fall into one of two categories:

1- Communists on power trips who believe they should have more control; or

2- Idiots who are brainwashed by those in #1 above.

Some people just prefer induction to gas, they're pretty awesome for their own reasons and they're actually more efficient than standard electric stoves. Neither one is taxing the grid in the same stratosphere as other things.

Gas is great too. Electric stoves blow mule penis though.

The author of the piece just did no research.

ETA:

I think electric stoves use like 1 kW to cook a meal and a Tesla takes like 100 kW to charge each night. Ford Lightning is a lot more than that.

I would never support a ban on gas stoves. Just pointing out that the author of this article is talking out of his arse saying that induction stoves are a new, increased tax on the energy grid.

Liberal white women are the second most easily manipulated group. There's no progressive idiocy they can't be convinced to support. All you have to do is tell them their support makes them look tolerant or morally virtuous.
