Sara Ramirez is hitting back at further comparisons to their And Just Like That character.

The actor, who plays the polarizing Che Diaz on the Sex and the City reboot, slammed a June profile from The Cut, describing it as "The Hack Job's article, ‘written' by a white gen z non-binary person who asked me serious questions but expected a comedic response I guess."

"I trust that those of you who matter, who are not petulant children, who are smart enough to catch on to what was actually going on there, can perceive it for what it is: an attempt to mock my thoughtfulness and softness," Ramirez wrote on Instagram Aug. 22, "while dismissing a valid existence and real human being in favor of tv show critiques that belonged elsewhere."

The article analyzed Ramirez's artistic background—including their performance of Callie Torres in Grey's Anatomy—prior to landing their role in And Just Like That.

"For many decades, I performed ‘woman' with the long hair and the makeup," Ramirez, who is non-binary, told The Cut. "Sometimes it was me, and sometimes it was survival."

However, the reporter said Ramirez's Che Diaz has prompted "plenty of eye-rolling from the (mostly younger) queer people I know, who found the character a hyperbolized, hypercringe representation of nonbinary identity."

While the article pointed out the similarities between Ramirez and Che—both non-binary individuals of Mexican and Irish descent—Ramirez doubled down that their character is not an extension of themself. "I'm an actor," Ramirez told The Cut. "I'm not the characters I play. I'm not Che Diaz."

Ramirez further distanced themselves from Che's storyline in their Instagram rebuttal, stressing that they are not "the fictional characters I have played, nor am I responsible for the things that are written for them to say."

"I am a human being, an artist, an actor," Ramirez added. "And we are living in a world that has become increasingly hostile toward anyone who dares to free themselves from the gender binary, or disrupt the mainstream."

Ramirez ended their post with "friendly reminders," which included, "When a cis man is in charge and has ultimate control of dialogue actors say, and you have a valid problem with it, perhaps you should be interviewing him."

The Cut declined to comment when contacted by E! News.

Previously, Ramirez has remained adamant about separating themselves from Che and the criticisms the character has garnered over non-binary representation, telling the New York Times in February 2022, "I'm very aware of the hate that exists online, but I have to protect my own mental health and my own artistry."

And as for what Che would think of the controversy surrounding themselves, Ramirez deferred to And Just Like That showrunner Michael Patrick King.

"Michael Patrick King and the writers' room would probably answer that best since they wrote the character of Che Diaz," they said. "I imagine Che would have something very witty and silly and funny as a rebuttal; something that ultimately reminds everyone that they are human; something with a sprinkling of self-deprecation, because I think they know they're a narcissist. And maybe just a little reminder that no one's perfect."
