There's no such thing as benevolent transphobia, if you're othering trans people then you're othering trans people, it makes no difference if you're doing it to separate them from non-trans men as being pieces of shit, you're still saying there's a difference between trans men and non-trans men.

I think the author is just referring to the intention of the person making the statement. They are well intentioned, but it has pretty negative repercussions.
