> trans rights are incredibly well defined, actually. they’re human rights.

Then why can't I readily find a well defined list of what they are? For reference, the human rights are fairly well defined[1].

Of course trans people should be covered by the human rights. They're human as well, so that goes without saying.

> idk what “problematic statements” you’ve heard

I don't keep an evidence folder, so to speak, so I can't provide references.

However, I think we can agree there are extremists on both ends. It's also not a well-established term, in that it's fairly recent and isn't solidified in the same way as older terms like "human rights". Thus the need to be specific when referencing it.

> it sounds like you need to listen to less ben shapiro

Never knowingly listened to (nor read) Ben Shapiro and I couldn't pick him out in a crowd. I generally don't listen to or read much political commentary.

> I think it’s safe to assume that when a community claims to contain “no nazi bullshit”, they mean that it contains no nazis or their associated bullshit.

No, that is not safe to assume at all because a lot of people misuse "nazi" to mean something very different from actual Nazis, typically someone they strongly disagree with.
