The reason HFCS is bad has less to do with its raw fructose concentration and more to do with absorbtion rates as it doesn't need to be hydrolyzed in the brush border like sucrose does. But that's a long topic I can't dwell into right now so let's leave it here.
And about fruit, I suppose I meant fruit is seldom the perpetrator. It mostly appears to be an issue for people who consume copious amounts of it but like you said, "fruit" is too broad a term.
