Of course not! But there's people and then there's
people
people. You're people but you're not
people.
I'm not people either.

So is there a word for that other than just "not people"? You've got to have a positive qualifying term.

I don't see why there has to be a word in the first place. There's people, there's not people. It's just like how there's blue and not blue.

There's blue, and then there's all the other colors. If you say "not blue" then no one knows what you're talking about!

Of course they know what I'm talking about, it's
not blue.
If I told you to get me a mug, oh which mug, the not blue one, you'd know which one to get!

Your point can't be generalized if there's a vast amount of situations in which it wouldn't work at all! And there are certainly more than two types of "not people" out there.
