I have personally seen many instances of people getting banned or suspended from communities for either misgendering people (intentionally or not), or refusing to use their preferred pronouns.

But due to a real concern of retaliation or getting banned here myself, I will not be providing specific examples.

Sorry... that's what you're talking about? People being banned on internet forums? Big fucking deal.

There are also real world instances of violence over the same things if you do a quick web search.

Sorry, it's not my job to prove your claims. If there are real world instances of violence, I'm sure you can provide them and show they were definitely unprovoked.
