I'll be honest though I still don't understand the term "chaser" as a pejorative, I'm sure there's something I'm missing but in my mind I'm just thinking of a person who's attracted to trans people (trans women for the most part)

The main problems are as follows:

  1. Expecting trans women to let you live out your phallocentric misogynistic sex fantasies about "woman, but peepee?"
  2. Expecting trans women to let you live vicariously through them because you're obviously repressing your own trans feelings
  3. Expecting trans women to be "easy" because their potential dating pool is tiny and they're in prime position to be abused

It's obviously good to be attracted to trans people, but these are the types of behaviors that typify most actual chasers: very objectifying and harmful behavior. Even at its most innocuous, primarily dating trans women due to them being trans is obviously othering trans women from being "full" women.

So kind of similar to a white guy with an Asian girl fetish (the whole living out a fantasy of a subservient/traditional woman instead of the "crazy western girl")?

You could compare it to that, yes.
