You are bullshitting against fats and vegetables, for what reason I do not know. But nuts and seeds are NOT "almost 100%" percent fat.
They range from fat contents of 30g to upwards 70-75g per 100g (walnuts, for example, are on a higher end of this, so are hazelnuts. Almonds, pistachio are the middle ground, while peanuts - technically legume, I know -are on the lower side. The rest? 8-10 percent carbs, 10g+ fiber (some contain less, some much more), and anything between 10 to 30% protein (highest ones, again are almonds and peanuts, and sesame seeds). This is very easy to verify, you just need to do a quick googling. I do not know why anyone would clame this. Some of your other claims are going to be harder to look up, so I would like some citations, like the ones with olive oils STICKING TO YOUR ABDOMEN :P |

Its very different eating nuts from eating oil, because nuts are whole foods, you are getting a lot more than the fat when you eat a nut, as you mention.
But they are to be eaten in moderation, not by the bags.
The quote about olive oil I heard in one of Dr McDougall videos on oil on YouTube, although which video I cannot tell.
Probably in this video he will talk about it, it's his longest video on oil - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptF0KuF8xHU&t=74s
Anyway, my bottom line is that oil is not a health food, unlike popular belief.
Reasons being: it's almost only liquid fat with little nutritional content (those vitamins can be easily obtained elsewhere), and it's the number one source of hidden calories in food and one of the multiple causes for the obesity epidemic in the west.
Easting olives is healthy, but eating olive oil is not. Eating an extract of a food is very different from eating the whole food.
