Reality is "black and white". Claiming the contrary is paradoxical. Reality is composed of absolute affirmatives and absolute negatives. The subject either is "something" or it is not that "something." To deny this using the absolute negative is self refuting. It is fallacious logic parallel to the claim that absolutes do not exist. It is ridiculous to claim 2+1=3 is not always true or 2+1=5 is not always false without changing the definitions of the terms composing "2+1=x". When those definitions are changed, the statements are no longer equivalent to one another. This necessity of changing the definitions of terms within a statement to draw different conclusions supports the existence of absolute affirmatives and absolute negatives. I do not know of any language capable of articulation without the use of absolute affirmatives/negatives. Could language exist without them? What of consciousness and perception? There would be no logic, no order, no state of being, not even a state without being. Only void nothingness would be, yet, without absolute affirmatives/negatives, even such nothingness could not be.
