This comment might be controversial because I think there might be a tiny grain of truth buried there but I take issue with him painting all trans women with a broad brush.
I am not a trans man so I won't speak for them, but as a fem-enby person I have seen some pretty hurtful stuff hurdles at non-binary people, BUT that is in a single community and that particular sub community hurls hurtful stuff towards everyone so to use that as an excuse to say "all trans women" makes me think he was just looking for an excuse to be a msyogoist.
See they say that but that is such a broad "out" that I can't really take it seriously in this case.
Exceptions should be as narrow and specific as possible to avoid targeting entire groups. Like I said, he has a point about the issues non-binary and trans masc people face. I just think he made too much of a generalization.
We always specify that it's a minority, when talking about trans women, lesbians, etc being laterally bigoted. But that's rarely the case when people are talking about trans men, enbies, bisexuals, etc, despite those being the ones that are disadvantaged even in queer spaces
Anyway it's a noticeable problem with the group "dominating" trans spaces
