They are neither being sincere nor joking. They're creating a strawman through hyperbole to suggest that anyone who cares about pronouns is deranged. In reality, usually when someone gets upset about pronouns it is not because their neos weren't used, it was from being deliberately misgendered as an attack on them despite knowing the preferred he/she/they pronouns.
