Drunks swimming in gin, smokers in body bags and dopers living with their parents deep into adulthood. Those are among the public service ads shown in the United States in the past.

I think it's all designed to stimulate class division, envy and rancor amongst the populace. The masses are easier to control that way.

No one is advocating public service announcements that ridicule fat people; experts say such spots would do more harm than good.

More harm to the authoritarians seeking to set us against each other so they can more freely institute control. Insulting people for eating too much would just bring the heat back on themselves. Gotta be careful who you demonize and how.

Perfectly stated. Just substitute your humble “think” for know. Divide and conquer.

That's why they demonize the food you eat instead. It's easier to control fat people by taking their food away, and getting them to blame their fatness on food processors, red meat, etc. The anti meat people are well entrenched in food police offices.
