Communists tend to be the most supportive of trans liberation, I recommend reading Feinberg's Trans Liberation: Beyond Pink or Blue as well as Nia Frome's The Problem of Recognition in Transitional States, or Sympathy for the Monster.
None of this is to defend Nutomic's views as stated here, I firmly disagree with them. However, the idea that communists are supposed to be transphobic is just not true, generally. Cuba even has one of the world's most progressive family codes, and the GDR was one of the world's most progressive states towards the end of its existence. Marxism provides a framework that enables liberation of all oppressed peoples.
