Yeah. It states that they believe Trixie is transgender without needing to state it in a convoluted way and it makes transphobes mad to boot. Quite an effective slogan on two fronts if you ask me.
Edited
That’s what “TRIXIE IS TRANS!!” means, hm?
No, the concept of faith doesn’t apply to works of fiction. No one’s claiming Trans Trixie is a real-world fact that objectively exists. That would be absurd, none of the ponies exist IRL. They’re simply stating that she’s their version of a fictional character.
The goal isn’t to make others accept the headcanon of Trixie being trans, so much as it is to remind pony fans that trans people exist, and are part of the fandom, too. Making a fan-favorite character like Trixie into a trans pony helps with the visibility.
Making a declarative statement as boldly as this image does implies a pretty high level of conviction. But if the only evidence you have is that the claim is unfalsifiable, does that mean you believe it… on faith?
All a fan theory “needs” to be is not outright contradicted by canon.
Also, that a fan theory exists doesn’t mean it has to be a theory you subscribe to. Just live and let live with the people who do like it, and there won’t be a problem.
If you want to claim that theory, go ahead. I’m not gonna stop you.
I probably won’t agree with it and decide to take it up myself, but you’re totally free to see Celestia how you want.

Plot twist: trans women (and mares) can be lesbians, so I don’t see the conflict there.
Still, making a secondary character of a show for kids a flag of pride of some kind.
In that case Toriyama didn’t say that a character from Dragon Ball is trans.
Lauren Faust in the other hand, says that one character from season 1 is trans. One option is caramel, but she/he changes from male to female, or female to male constantly in colors. Sapphire Shores only by her physical. Trixie has the eyes of a male in her first appearances, a narcissistic character stereotyped on males, and she was a male before they changed her a female.
she do said the pony she loves is starlight. so is more posible that she is les and there is not much clue about being trans. goku was a girl in the concept of toriyama that doesnt make him a trans character.
Kudos for being quicker on the draw with the real source than I was with just typing secondhand stuff.
Honestly, I haven’t been paying very close attention to this subject.
Edited because: further clarification
Sort of seconding, don’t agree with your wording. Being trans or not does nothing for the character; arguments for representation are for the audience, show, or narrative, but not what makes Trixie, Trixie.

There is some very old ‘Word of God’ from the show creators back in Season 1 that the character that would become Trixie was initially concieved of as male.
But since that fact is both obscure and very old, I don’t know if that’s truly why this Trixie is trans idea has become trendy recently.
Why Trixie? Is this another dumb Tumblr meme, like the Minecraft bee?
Aren’t fan theories generally supposed to have some degree of canon support? Like, I could claim that Princess Celestia is secretly an amputee with a really convincing prosthetic leg, but I wouldn’t, because there’s zero evidence of that.
She’s a fictional pony, and the show never touched on this kind of stuff. Therefore, it’s everyone’s free choice to decide how they see Trixie: trans, cis, NB, something else entirely.
