Binary is a term used to describe being in a state of one of two mutually exclusive conditions. Binary thinkers are individuals who classify any idea,concept or people into completely opposite group and in some cases labels one group positive or good and the other negative or bad . they think in terms of black or white.no room for middle or grey. They are easy to spot by their vocabulary. They tend to use words such as never,always, none, etc.

EITHER GOD EXISTS OR HE DOESN'T. EITHER BIBLE IS COMPLETE LIES OR COMPLETE TRUTH. NO ROOM FOR EXCLUDED MIDDLE

Binary thinkers are unwilling to change. They can only be managed.first agree with them that the system is unfair. Life itself is unfair. Rain falls in both the good and bad.secondly, explain to them that it is better to be effective than to be fair. It is difficult to be both.thirdly encourage them to use middle terms such as warm (instead of hot or cold). Middle aged instead of (young or old) sometimes instead of (always or never). Ask them open minded question such ad can one be good at maths and Terrible at English? Does that make the person a terrible person academically? Question like this tend to open their mind and make them less rigid. Binary thinkers are not bad. Infact, no single individual is entirely good or bad.
