Transgenderism is pretty much the ultimate bourgeois vice. They spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in therapies, surgeries, and drugs all for a fucked up sexual thrill. The modern West is the only culture on earth that could possibly sustain such a thing at this scale. It's a direct symptom of too much luxury in the hands of people who don't appreciate it.
Non-binary is just the bland teenage non-conformist with a "you laugh at me because I'm different, I laugh at you because you're all the same" sticker on their expensive MacBook retooled for a sex-obsessed modern day culture. It's normal to want to be "different", even if the way you're different is via a self-imposed label that ultimately means nothing. Adults still doing it are one part pathetic and one part creepy, but creepy, pathetic adults are nothing new either.
Transgenderism goes well beyond that into a bizarre combination of magical thinking, extreme delusion, self hatred, and science worship. They claim that their body somehow grew incorrectly and needs to be torn apart and stitched back together into what they believe better represents who they "truly are". And that's the least mentally ill type of tranny.
Non-binary is about out trooning the troons, with a bonus of not having to mutilate yourself. You're correct that it's about wanting to be special, but it's worth emphasizing that it's about one upping the troons as the most special person in the room. That's how it started anyway. Now it's mostly an easy to get woke street cred without having to do anything. The diseased "logic" underpinning non-binary is a direct extension of troonery as well. Troonery makes the false claim that a man can become a woman and vice versa, but it still implicitly recognizes that man and woman are the only two genders that exist. Non-binary doubles down on the retardation by falsely claiming that gender exists outside of that binary, hence the term non-binary and idiotic concepts like the gender spectrum that mean nothing in practice. I often half joke about gender becoming a multi-dimensional space in the future, but I'd only be half shocked if the left made the gender hypercube a thing.
I would only add that transgenderism, necromorph ideology, entails mastectomy, hysterectomy, castration, and the creation of grotesque Frankensteinish appendages and things like a fake vagina being made from a man's colon, which led to near-fatal (or fatal--I forget) infection.
So-called "non binary" fashion is just that-- a fad that allows adolescents to be edgy without having to commit to surgery, much like the public declarations of homo- and bisexuality that do not reflect their actual sex habits. Heteros--especially teenage boys-- can't get off on homosex. Girls can more easily pretend because they need not have any penetration or even cunnilingus--they can play at lesbianism without a serious emotional or physical.commitment.

When I was a kid, we all insisted we were bisexual, because straightness is boring. Were we? No, of course not. We just said we were for the social clout. We'd proudly declare "I'm straight but not narrow" and then continue being as hetero as possible.
In college a lot of the girls would take it a step farther and kiss each other at parties - secretly purely as a show for the boys, of course - and declare themselves bisexual or lesbian. But by then the boys had all outgrown the need to apply trendy labels to themselves so the girls mostly stopped by junior year.
Tl;Dr every generation does this and it's 99% performative because kids are stupid

Sometimes I wonder which is more absurd between non binary or transgender. There was a time where those people would be directed to get counseling
Transgenderism is definitely more absurd.

Right on.
