In a live-and-let-live spirit, I wish all the best to non-binary
people. But in the same spirit I'm very much against their current
political sponsors, namely the totalitarian, thought-policing,
identity-obsessed "woke" liberal left. Hearing from them that
non-binary people are saints and the rest of us are worthless pieces
of shit (and I do hear that all the time) is a deal-breaker. So since
I have mixed feelings I ignore the issue. I think this is a common
reaction.
