Why does Parmenides say that "non-being is not" in the fragments? You can easily imagine non-being. Think about the totality of the universe. Then think about what lies outside the boundaries of the universe. That is non-being. There, I solved it.

Hell, you couldn't even say "non-being is not" without being able to conceptually "manipulate" non-being as a concept. So it has to "be" in some sense.
