The whole bit about gas stoves I have no doubt is a pretty typical astroturf campaign from the fossil fuel industry. They have shamelessly made up pro-gas nonprofits using fake personas, paid social media influencers to promote gas stovetops, and are likely behind the current "gubmit wants to take away your gas stove" trend that's drumming up online drama.
One doesn't even need to look at climate impact to say gas stoves are bad, but focus the narrative on that one aspect and you can get climate deniers hyperventilating and defending their gas stovetop with statements like "you'll pry my gas stove from my dead hands". But really, economics are going to kill them all the same - induction stoves are dramatically more energy efficient, have the same benefits of fast thermal response, and don't pose a gigantic risk to life and limb every time you turn them on (or leave them off, for that matter).
