I doubt Human Connor is going to be actually upset about this tbh

He's upset enough that he voiced his preference. Choosing to ignore that stated preference might be fine in this context, or it might not be. But, assuming that someone is not actually upset about a behavior that they've requsted change seems like an unnecessary leap of faith.

It also seems like an unnecessary leap of faith to assume somebody is actually feeling usurped by a cat.

I mean, we can only go off of what is presented in the story, while acknowledging it's 4chan and therefore both fake and gay. Within that frame, the new guy has been tagged with a nickname, he has mentioned to his colleagues that he'd prefer they not call him the nickname, and they are continuing to call him the name he's expressly said he'd prefer they didn't use. That's a textbook hostile work environment, at a minimum.
