#NonBinary is an oxymoron, and the Moral Relativism of #Wokism

"Non-binary" is itself a binary classification, and asserts a binary belief.

The moment you use a label, a nama-rupa- the very idea of using a label, is to introduce a binary split within entities that were previously grouped together, First, create a differentiation based on certain attributes and then use a label to mentally reinforce this partition.
