No all the fat people happen to be bad guys in this series the main character just happens to run into a lot of bad guys that are fat people. It makes sense that a lot of fat people are bad guys in this show. In this series a nuclear war turned the planet into devolved arid civilzation, water is scarce and everyone has to grow their own food, how the hell did you manage to get so damn fat even with condishuns! You are obviously doing some shady shit if you manage to get so fat while everyone else is skinny.
