No, I don't think obese people are stupid. Just the opposite. I am jealous of the ability, generally, to enjoy food without restraint. Why live a long life if you have to eat healthy the whole time? Life is too short to prioritize vanity over quality of life.
And yes, I find the perverse entangling of health and marketing to be nauseous. There is so much crap out there, it is easy to get lost spending time and energy in a terrible place, like a gluten free diet. Many people willingly lie to themselves to convince themselves that "this author knows anything" without thinking critically. If obese people are stupid, so are foodies, workaholics, gamers, drug addicts, consumers of anti anxiety medication, etc...
People need to learn moderation without passing judgement on what others care about. Americans are inhelthily interested in health for no goddamn reason. Do you really think living longer is gonna help anyone?

I visit France every year and I am always amazed how well they eat while staying slim. They don't obsess over health as much, they obsess over food quality. As a result they are ranked 8th in life expectancy vs the US 34th.
