Can someone help me understand this:

My take on this, is that the cartoon is an attempt at socio-political
satire (set in USA) and is current for 2025.

"Pronoun" it this sense, is not literal, rather it is being used here
as a slur or slang put-down term for a someone who considers themselves
as being a nonbinary, transgender or a hundred other gender related
termed person.

The nonbinary person depicted is (I presume) the couple's child, who
has contracted rubella and is so ill as to be hospitalized.

It appears that they would rather purchase over-priced eggs than have
anything more to do with their own child. i.e.; they hate "Pronouns".

I find it's sad, on the depressing side of the world we inhabit, and
not very funny.

Anyway, the "Pronoun" being used here is simply a derogitive term for a
particular type of person. Someone who refers to themselves as Xe/Xem,
they/them, etc.
