How does "people will uncontrollably eat if given the chance" turn into "there are no starving fat people".

You're right that obesity is not necessarily linked to overeating . How is this relevant to your original point? Isn't it a complete contradiction to what you were saying before?

The original post was hyperbolic to the point of nonsense and now it seems we're on a completely different topic.

This can be true, but I think some people are confused. The vast majority of the time, it is linked to overeating. There are some edge cases where there is something else going on metabolically, but most people do over eat.
