Why don't english just use 'them' instead of he/she.
The people wanting to invent their new bullshit pronouns would have no reason to complain then.
It's is just the easiest compromise you could do.

Because of the psychology behind leftism.

>But no matter how far the movement has gone in attaining its goals the leftist is never satisfied, because his activism is a surrogate activity (see paragraph 41). That is, the leftist’s real motive is not to attain the ostensible goals of leftism; in reality he is motivated by the sense of power he gets from struggling for and then reaching a social goal. [35] Consequently the leftist is never satisfied with the goals he has already attained; his need for the power process leads him always to pursue some new goal. The leftist wants equal opportunities for minorities. When that is attained he insists on statistical equality of achievement by minorities. And as long as anyone harbors in some corner of his mind a negative attitude toward some minority, the leftist has to re-educated him. And ethnic minorities are not enough; no one can be allowed to have a negative attitude toward homosexuals, disabled people, fat people, old people, ugly people, and on and on and on.

>Suppose you asked leftists to make a list of ALL the things that were wrong with society, and then suppose you instituted EVERY social change that they demanded. It is safe to say that within a couple of years the majority of leftists would find something new to complain about, some new social “evil” to correct because, once again, the leftist is motivated less by distress at society’s ills than by the need to satisfy his drive for power by imposing his solutions on society.

To be fair to Op, "you" was once the plural form. Ye was the singular form. Language does change over time. The pronoun "they" was introduced in Middle English because of a sound change that had the native word "hie" sounding just like the pronoun "he".

Yes I know this. Thats why you solve their bullshit with solutions they don't want.
Pronoun for everyone -> just one
Black lives matter -> no lives matter
etc.

So you take take the joy out of their "victories"
