Not when the left does it. Rudeness is resistance to them.

By now, you’ve probably heard about that college professor and his husband who got booted from a JetBlue flight for accosting and harassing Ivanka Trump (and her kids). Shockingly (read: not shockingly) many liberals don’t seem to have much of a problem with the fact that a grown woman minding her own business was publicly berated — in front of her children, no less — by a pair of jackasses. Feminist writer Jessica Valenti went so far as to essentially say that Ivanka was asking for it.

But liberals and feminists should seriously be up in arms over what happened, especially when the incident is framed this way:

So is harassing a woman on a JetBlue flight to explain what you don't like about her father the ultimate mansplaining or nah?
