If someone uses the incorrect pronouns for someone, especially a trans person, after being corrected and/or uses their deadname (necronym), you're looking at a transphobe, full stop.
No matter how much social justice and anti-bigotry language they may bathe themselves in, no matter how they may position themselves as "advocating for the marginalised", no matter how much you may respect them for other actions, these are *bare minimum* things, right up there with not using ethnic slurs.
p.s. for a trans person, having a necronym outed to the public is literally life-threatening, whether that leads to direct physical abuse (including death) or discrimination and abuse from entities like companies and communities (which can also all too easily lead to death)

p.p.s. yaaay, faves and boosts have balanced out a little bit
