Which electric stove, though? Induction or resistive? Sure, neither will kill you via massive explosion (unless you really use your stove wrong), but inductive has better performance and is more forgiving if you spill soup etc on the element, whereas resistive stoves are cheap and don’t require you to buy new pans.
The correct answer depends on your budget, so your comment cleverly disguises a class war within it.
Neither. Radiant heating with a ceran hob, which is very common where I live. Electric stoves are pretty much the default anyway, so this isn’t really a class war over here.
Maybe the class war is whether it is inductive or not.
Resistive heating elements are more efficient at heating things. It just takes longer to heat up because the heating element has to heat up instead of just applying flames directly too the cookware.

Even induction ones can be had for relatively cheap nowadays. They are just the best way to cook imo.
