The language can change. I understand.

What I have problems with is:

1. We publicly shame people for not use the new word. Calling them names like bigots.

2. Your authority thinks the new word is wrong.

It just seems, at this point, you should scream at your authorities to support singular "they" officially. Here they are: https://www.ets.org/about/who/leadership/

Instead, we spend energy and effort publicly shaming random people.
