Obesity is actually decreasing today, due to GLP-1 receptor agonists. We are already over peak obesity.

It's just masking the symptoms. I suppose the equivalent for the mind would be everyone on anti-depressant and sedatives. Paints quite the grey picture of our future.

    It's a picture that's been painted in a different scifi novel,

         Hug me till you drug me, honey;
     Kiss me till I'm in a coma;
     Hug me, honey, snuggly bunny,
     Love's as good as soma."

    Still, I'm optimistic. With obesity, who cares about the underlying cause if you can easily cure the symptoms?
