John Stewart's Monologue On Gas Stoves And Other More Important Matters: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMSmIAfNng4
You have GOT TO SEE the segment on "gas stoves" that starts at the 2:35 mark.
When you see it, ask yourself, Do any of these people "have a life?"
I mean...
WTF!?!
These pathologically provocable folks exist to inflame -- and to be inflamed -- almost always "over nothing" (or damn near nothing).
For a long time, we have known that conservatives freak out more easily - are more readily frightened - than liberals and progressives. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/conservative-and-liberal-brains-might-have-some-real-differences/
Why are these fundamental political truths not taught in our schools?
Why are civics so rarely taught in our schools?
Frank Zappa observed that "Politics is the entertainment division of The Military Industrial Complex."
And it was President Dwight Eisenhower who coined the phrase "military-industrial complex" on the occasion of issuing an existential warning to the American people about the MCI's well-disguised profiteering agenda.
Furthermore, he issued that dire warning from The Oval Office in his nationally televised "Farewell Address."

It is not that we don't know what to do to make America - and the world - a better place.
It's that we lack the political will to do it.
As always, when confounded by the overarching shadow of Cowboy Capitalism, look to the profiteers.
Follow the money!
H.G. Wells summarized our plight: "Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe."
Donald Trump "loves the uneducated" because he's one of them, and he is comforted by the company of other uneducated, spiteful people who have chosen to reject learning in favor of digging their fearful trenches ever deeper in the benighted domain of The Prince of Darkness.
