Calling people what they want to be called is not "enslaving your speech and thought."

  When they say “speak and act exactly like we tell you to, when we tell you to, or else”, it does not sound like a very voluntary regime.

  no its not but FORCING people to use those words or be fined or banned or jailed is definitely tyranny

    Being required to behave civilly at work is not "tyranny." I don't know where you got "fined or jailed" from.
