Every time I hear it, I hear "nigger", and even though some comedians assure us that there's a marked difference between black people are niggers, this is not a valid interpretation of modern usage and society.

This is one of the greatest loads of horseshit I've read in a long while.

Yes, this is how I see it used when it is used in its normal context, and that's how I see it as a result - especially when it's used against transwomen.

How the fuck, exactly, is toxic masculinity - as a term - used for transphobia against transwomen?

By daring to invade (women born) women's spaces, they are accused of having toxic male entitlement - a form of toxic masculinity.

Basically, they are hated because they are seen as men.

You got some proof of that, that that's a claim people make about transwomen?

Oh there's transmisogyny too. Typically transmen experience it.

The people who attack the trans community typically attack them because they perceive them to be the opposite gender than they are.

It’s not a stretch nor is he being transphobic. It is a belief held particularly by people who do not consider trans women women but men.

I mean, we are in the trans thread. I doubt the site-wide disparity is that large, although I imagine there is a low percentage of women (whether cis or trans).

He’s not calling trans women men. He’s pointing out that the concept of toxic masculinity is used by people who do not consider trans women women to oppress them. That they consider trans women nothing but men invading women’s spaces.

TERF transmisogyny is often underlyingly a result of misandry because TERFs view trans women as men. It's not that it's actual misandry, since it's not directed towards men, but that's the way it's constructed in their minds.

Perhaps I am using the term wrongly. I'll admit it if I said it wrong and apologize.

I was talking MtF transperson to be a transwoman, IE, they transitioned to being a woman and therefore are a woman.
I was talking TtM transperson to be a transman, IE, they transitioned to being a man and therefore are a man.

Is this incorrect terminology?

That's mostly correct, although I think you accidentally typed TtM rather than FtM. However, you need to have a space between trans and man/woman.
Trans men don't suffer from transmisogyny, because that's bigotry against trans women.

Nope, that's correct. You claimed, however, transmisogyny is typically experienced by transmen, even though it's hate against transwomen.

Because the person doing the hating sees them as a woman, and hates them on that basis, essentially.
