I think that post is different from the usual 'helicopter meme' use.

In this case it's not being directed against transgender identity specifically, but is rather a statement that anyone can claim to be whatever they want on the internet. To my mind that's an important distinction.

I'm reading that as light snarkiness in context. It's disallowed when used to troll transgender people. No action required.

No, again, that's not an attempt to mock transgender people or anyone else. It's a bit of (admittedly unoriginal) snark about the topic of political affiliation.
