LGBTQ community advocates say it's a sign of respect and isn't about religion or politics. Putting gender identity aside, putting preferred names aside, and putting identity politics in general aside, a sign of respect is to tell them the truth.

Sometimes, but telling someone the truth is often used to insult people you don't like. Everyone knows at least one asshole who says whatever they want and justifies it with "I'm just telling the truth!" Maybe it's true, maybe it isn't, but no one asked for your opinion! That's not respect, that's just using a flimsy excuse to get away with being a jerk.

This is true.

But another point to consider is if it really is considered a lie. Someone asking to be called something else doesnt seem like lie, tbh.

Also, to call them by their preferred name would actually be the way to show them respect.
