> focus on calories in and calories out because those are the biggest factor

A lot of people tried that, and it didn't work, but we never got to "why doesn't it work for so many people" because people like you keep parroting "CICO! You're just weak! CICO! CICO!!" even though it helps nobody.

Of course, calories in and calories out are mostly out of your control, but we're past that, since this has now become about moral judgment of obese people.

You’ve now accused me of calling people both stupid and weak, when I’ve done neither of those. You’re not even trying to have an actual constructive conversation. If your goal is to have mutually beneficial discussions or even just to educate those you disagree with, you might try not being so hostile.

More to the point, you haven’t said anything meaningful about society’s obesity problem except to assert that everyone with a weight problem is a victim completely lacking in agency.
