Without knowing those that you consider to be 'lazy fat slobs' you cannot make that comment/observation without it being a generalisation.
How is it a generalisation? It is aimed at exactly the people mentioned and they need no defence (they know who they are), also because it isn't aimed at the genuine medically obese they do need defending because they aren't mentioned in the observation.

The 'lazy fat slobs' are exactly that.
