Ignoring the bit where they call him trans as an insult...
Yeah re-reading that line, I think you're right that they intended "trans" to mean "masqueradeding as".
I agree with the sentiment, but you're right, it's not cool to use "trans" for that purpose. Thanks for poking me to more carefully consider how the word was used here.
