I don't think it's liberals making this an issue. It's the so-called conservatives. Liberals are just calling people what they want to be called, be it pronouns or hyphenations or whatever.
That is just not accurate. In the DEI heyday of 4-5 years ago, the liberal "regime" of pronouns became standard policy at most large organizations, especially public and non-profit. Employees were at least encouraged to include she/her/hers / he/him/his / they/them/theirs in email signatures. It was "optional", but if you didn't, well... you were quietly labeled by the politically correct powerful as anti-DEI, non-conformist, or... conservative.
Beyond that, the waves of mandatory diversity training courses, with attendance tracked by management, etc etc.
It wasn't just the so-called enlightened "liberals calling people what they want to be called". It was "AND making it required for EVERYONE to call people what they want to be called" and "RE-EDUCATING the (evil) people who didn't want to do that on how Goodthink it was."
THAT'S what conservatives objected to.
