I could not agree with you more! they're actively willing to throw actual trans people under the bus in the name of being "progressive." I've seen them make analogies to how people used to "warn" for gay pairings in fanfics, and it's ~totally the same~ warning for trans!characters, completely ignoring the fact that reading Kirk/Spock gives you an indication there will be gay content, and gay content does not have the potential to trigger dysphoria.

trans people who are comfortable reading about their favorite characters being trans should absolutely be allowed to find content, but I and many other trans people are not.

"trans people who are comfortable reading about their favorite characters being trans should absolutely be allowed to find content, but I and many other trans people are not."

And both groups benefit from it being tagged.
The former find it easier to search for, the latter find it easier to avoid/blacklist.
(And people whose ability to handle trans!fic varies over time can make more informed decisions as to whether or not they can cope with a fic when it's tagged properly, too.)
