Depends how serious
Personally, no. I would only boycott if the owners took it as far as to discriminate against customers and lobby for oppressive political policies.
I wouldn't boycott over someone simply voicing disagreement with the womens' march but doing nothing actually to stop it, that seems a bit petty to me (other people have the right to boycott if they want to, I just think it's a bit petty)

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
