Mostly nah, not unless they're pretending to be trans in combination with something they're trying to falsely pin on trans folks, like pedophilia.

Hierarchies of oppression are nonsense, but Black folks and cis women have institutionalized their liberatory civil rights wins in a way that trans community is still fighting to do.
Far right chuds often fake those identities to try and leverage those wins.

Let me emphasize again that this is not trying to rank oppression, that's destructive.
At the same time, we should recognize that it's still widely considered okay to explicitly, openly shit on trans folks in a way that many other groups have made in-roads discouraging.

Outside the very extreme far right, most racists don't want to be *called* racists, because there are social/professional consequences to that label.
That's not nearly as true with transphobia, which makes faking trans identity in order to disingenuously leverage accusations of transphobia less of an effective troll tactic.
Again, for the folks in back: this is NOT a broad point about one group being more or less oppressed than another.
It is about how far right chuds attempt to leverage socially institutionalized civil rights victories to try and troll libs and leftists.
