Basically my primary frustration with a lot of mainstream left-ish framings of trans issues is the treatment of trans rights as a concession they're making to be nice, rather than a principled stance grounded in a real, material understanding of the world.
It leads to this attitude of being vaguely embarrassed to support trans people, which crumbles when Right Wing Dipshit Pundit #33145 starts going on about "harsh truths" that a competent advocate could call out for being incorrect.
"You are transphobic" as an argument by itself is a lot weaker than "You are demonstrably, unambiguously wrong about this issue. You have reached an incorrect conclusion despite having all the information needed to be correct, because you'd rather be transphobic than right."
I think the main obstacle to this approach is that nobody on the right even pretends to give a shit about facts, logic, the truth or material reality anymore. They all seem to have collectively agreed they lost on that front years ago. You can prove them wrong on the issue all you want, their response is to stick their fingers in their ears and go "lalalalala I can't here you men can't be women men can't be women men can't be women lalalalalala." And the thought leaders who push this stuff to them for personal gain are all fully aware that they're just lying, it's 100% grifters all the way down.
The right is a deeply unpopular minority that would be irrelevant if it wasn't constantly getting concessions from liberals who've been propagandized into believing that doing so is "pragmatic" and "realistic."
