Please don't be condescending when you don't know the basic terminology for the topic being discussed especially when the info is a Google search away.
TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) = BMR + Energy expended in a day.
It is very clear concept. Have the self control to master the mental elements and eat less calories than your TDEE and you lose weight. My question do you have research/evidence that disputes this? In my opinion as long as the truth is that being overweight is caused by eating more food than you need, the mentality of "fatty has no self control" is reasonable.

The only people using "TDEE" are sketchy fitness websites. There is no wikipedia article on the term, and no legitimate medical or scientific sources.
Some studies have used the abbreviation TEE but even then saying BMR would have been clearer and is a well recognised medical term/abbreviation.
The first thing I did was Google TDEE, the first half dozen results are small gyms, or tiny fitness calculators. If you want people not to question your terminology then use more standard terminology.

Do you have evidence that all of weight loss can be boiled down to "just self-control more?" There have been literally hundreds of studies spanning at least 40 years, few if any have found that the key to fighting addictions is just to "self-control more" otherwise we wouldn't have tons of alcoholics, drug addicts, obese people, and so on...
Maybe you should go work at a drug rehab clinic some time. Just keep saying to people "just learn to self control!" and see how far that gets you...
> In my opinion as long as the truth is that being overweight is cause be eating more food than you need to "fatty has no self control" holds true.
And your opinion ignores 40 years of psychological research into addiction. Congratulations to you.

It was certainly true of me 40lbs ago.
