2) They might not actually exist, so they might not belong
3) I don't know what that is
4) No
5) No

1) A common asexual response would be that they are not heteronormative noe allonormative and are therefore queer in a society dominated by heteronormative views of relationship (which results in their ostracisation and discrimination to various degrees).  'A' has been part of lgbtq+ for some time now based on this idea.  What would your counter-response be?

2) I'm not sure what you mean by NBi genders not actually existing given gender is meant here as a social construct, rhus if people declare themselves NBi it exists.  Can you clarify?

3) Objectums have attraction/love with non-organics (objects and concepts), fictos with fictional characters.  Fictos are often included under the asexual umbrella, as are to a lesser extent objectums.

4) Polyamorous and fethish activists might argue that they are also outside heteronormative society, and face discrimination because of that.  What would your response be?

1) Yeah I don't think they belong because they are not "queer" in the same sense as all the others, being asexual isn't queer, it's just not caring about sex
2) Well I mean, there has to be a limit to what people identify as, otherwise the whole concept of "identity" becomes meaningless
3) Actually that sounds like me, I used to fantasize about having relationships with anime and video game girls, then I started becoming unhealthily infatuated with IRL girls 
4) They aren't outside heteronormative society, heterosexuals can have multiple partners or fetishes too
