So, OS’s that don’t ship with GNU components aren’t Unix?
See: any BSD.
All of the things you mention in your post have _alternatives_ that also comply with whatever they reference: there are other MP3 encoders, there are other types of gas, there are other democratic republics…
And more importantly, GNU isn’t Unix.

Why would you write this? Are you trolling, or do you believe that's really what was meant?
