There's nothing morally wrong with it. There's no reason to judge someone for it. Being fat yourself doesn't excuse being an asshole to others for something that literally doesn't affect you at all

What right do you have to consume more than you need especially in a time where it is readily evident that our consumption ( be it material or food ) is causing our planet to be destroyed by us.

So the argument can actually be made … yeah choosing to be obese and stay there and advocate for it is wrong.

Being fat doesn’t make you a bad person. Anyone who says that is an ass. However advocating for obesity being ok and normalizing it does.

The moral (and ethical) argument against obesity is: consuming more than you need is wasteful and selfish especially in a time where our consumption is driving the climate to the brink

That's a shit reason what the heck xD it's not fat people's fault shit gets wasted my guy, that's like blaming people who don't garden for climate change while they're leveling the Amazon for farm land. Stop looking for excuses to shit on fat people, or at least don't make them so cartoonishly stupid cx
