The trouble is, where do you draw those hard lines? I have many friends for whom pretty much any discussion of trans issues is tantamount to discussing whether genocide is ok. There is one set of acceptable viewpoints and anything else is "transphobic".
I'm not sure what you mean by "discussion of trans issues" in this context. Most of the trans people I know are happy to discuss the issues and hardships they face as long as you aren't throwing slurs their way, so your phrasing is a bit confusing.
As I said in my first post, wanting to exterminate people of a certain ethnic group is certainly over the line for me. Similarly, openly expressing support for the fascist paramilitary force who are murdering people in the streets of my country is also over the line. These don't seem too troublesome for me.
