The fats get so mad at "calories in, calories out", "it isn't that simple," they type while drinking a 400 calorie coffee, sitting on a couch scrolling social media all day. Of course actually achieving a deficit of calories is harder for some people but it's still calories in calories out.
The "it's not that simple" crowd enabled my mother's delusional overeating up untill her own fucking doctor hand-waved away the cause of her prediabetes : eating too much.
I snapped, did what nutritionists and woke idiots say never do : tracked calories of the exact same sugary crap she wants to eat, to reduce the portions. Still junk food. She wouldn't have done the counting herself. In part because the media keeps scaring people away from doing it.
Her prediabetes vanished, and 50+ pounds along the months. The what part of Western diets is less important than the how much part considering we're nearing 80% of people being too fat.
Yes, it's that simple. You just eat too much. Take some fucking responsability or at least stop whining to nag the world to demolish then rebuild everything to accomodate your obese ass.
It's actually not that simple, but not in the way the fats like to believe. 400 calories of soda is gonna ruin your waistline a lot worse than 400 calories of steak because of how sugar and carbs spike your insulin levels. Spiking insulin puts your body into "put all of this fuel in long term storage" mode. The fatties just want to absolve themselves of the responsibility for their situation and aren't interested in actually understanding how their body functions. They aren't interested in improving their situation, they just want to flee from the guilt they know they deserve.

Which means fewer calories out, so it's still "calories in calories out". And eating a steak and doing some push-ups builds muscle and means more calories out, so it's still "calories in calories out."
It's kind of like how people can argue whether planes stay up in the air because they have lower pressure above the wings or because they exert a downward force on surrounding air. It doesn't really matter because either way the equations have to balance.
Even then, you have the opportunity to correct your diet.

When I lived in Europe for a year I ate like shit and lost 30 pounds because I walked every where.

Agreed.
There's just more to the equation than a lot of people realize.
