They are both things to aspire to, but you’re right in that one does not lead to the other.

I think it's more that neither can be complete without the other. Trans liberation requires worker liberation, worker liberation requires trans liberation. Each can make meaningful progress without the other, but only in an incomplete manner.

they're different shades of the same thing; the prejudices that allow us to be manipulated as workers is one in the same as those that perpetuate transphobia.

What do you mean? Social progress is a core aspect of Socialism, without trans liberation we can't truly liberate the proletariat.
