There's a podcast interview you should listen to where Peter Attia interviews Gerald Shulman (MD, PhD) about the mechanisms underlying diabetes. Shulman clearly implicates excessive intramyocellular lipids (which diets high in saturated fat increase) as the culprit, and Attia, former keto zealot, does basically nothing to dispute this, presumably because he can't. It's pretty damning for the low-carb dogma, which I confess to having been at least somewhat taken in by: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5291812/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5291812/ (I never did keto or paleo, but I did harbor an irrational fear of carbs years. Today I still eat animal products in moderation, but I absolutely try to keep it as low in SFA as I can.)
