You are merely pointing out modern advances and stating that food is now readily available to all those fatties whose primal instinct to eat and has no off switch.

I have..We are in agreement..Overeat and move too little = becomes fatter.
Yes I agree with the science regards calorie intake and exercise. But that was not in dispute.
The desire to eat is as much a primal in-built mechanism as the desire to reproduce. Some people, where the urge to eat is strong, have to have their stomachs tied in a knot in order to prevent them from over-eating.

I disagree; there are huge social pressures to look a certain way, to be thin.
The plus-sized model campaigns, the number of people with eating disorders (bulimia, anorexia, for example, as well as over-eating and comfort eating).
Huge encouragement to fill up on highly-calorific-yet-nutritionally-empty trough, at the same time countered by huge social pressures to not do so.
Nonsense.
The push to look a certain way and the push to sell food are not mutually exclusive. Otherwise how do explain that the very same environment - the greedy westernised nations are becoming more obese.
So in that case, where you get a group of people, who when are exposed to fashion magazines, their own body dysmorphia or peer pressure, then you can expect them to maybe have eating disorders etc.
That same group of people may contain folks that can't resist the urge to eat. My argument is that we are conditioned to eat and put on weight through a primal urge also.
I went to the surgery today I was told that I am 6 pound over weight 
The amount of fat children one sees today never ceases to amaze me

Michael Jackson always said his face was evolving
his looks were created by evolution not surgery
so if one wants to see human evolution in progress just take a look at pics of Jacko through the years
He was worried about discrimination because of his dark skin. Someone told him to lighten up.

simple consumption of food and drink should not cause the beast like creatures that walk the earth now , regardless of how much they’re shovelling into themselves.
we’re looking at genetically altered versions of the human race , through vast amounts of chemicals that they’re consuming in food and drink.
and no I don’t have google links or proof . just eyes.

Little and often is all it takes.
It's the super fatties that you see on a mobility scooter that intrigue me.

First, people are exposed to more chemicals that might be weight-gain inducing. Pesticides, flame retardants, and the substances in food packaging might all be altering our hormonal processes and tweaking the way our bodies put on and maintain weight.
Second, the use of prescription drugs has risen dramatically since the 1970s and ’80s. Prozac, the first blockbuster SSRI, came out in 1988. Antidepressants are now one of the most commonly prescribed drugs in the U.S., and many of them have been linked to weight gain.
Finally, Kuk and the other study authors think that the microbiomes of Americans might have somehow changed between the 1980s and now. It’s well known that some types of gut bacteria make a person more prone to weight gain and obesity. Americans are eating more meat than they were a few decades ago, and many animal products are treated with hormones and antibiotics in order to promote growth. All that meat might be changing gut bacteria in ways that are subtle, at first, but add up over time. Kuk believes that the proliferation of artificial sweeteners could also be playing a role.
This meme about boomers Brexiteers is spot on.
