"Non" comes from the Latin word meaning "not" or "nothing" and entered English usage in the 19th–20th century as a dismissive label for a person considered unimportant, insignificant, or worthless. The term strips individuality by reducing someone to a null value. It appears mainly in informal or subcultural speech and occasionally in political or social commentary. The term is clearly derogatory and intended to demean, not neutral.
