Processed food is one thing, but carbs being the baddie?
Carbs are pure energy to the body, I eat pretty much only carbs and manage to have a few abs pop out, it's about what you're doing with the energy you put into the machine.

Correct, if you don't use the energy, the body store it as fat

A high carb diet is linked with poor health (truly linked, with decent science and not shoddy epidemiological studies).

If you're active, you'll need carbs to fuel you.

There's a lot of carnivore athletes out there that would disagree with you.
If you're curious about this, you may want to listen to some interviews with Dr. Tim Noakes. He's the originator of the whole "carb loading" concept, which introduced the idea that you needed to eat a lot of carbs before and during anything athletic.
He has since completely renounced that idea (after developing diabetes himself) and I just listened to an interview with him. Very interesting, especially how he was persecuted after renouncing the previous pro-carb ideas.
