This isn't a necessarily political thing, and there is certainly precedent for it. I've seen TSA make passengers change their shirt because it was a band T shirt with the word "fuck" on it.
Freedom of expression has always had limitations, according to what is considered to be "commonly decent" when people have not consented to hear/see that expression.
We can argue whether or not "decency" laws have any place in a constitutional republic, but the fact remains they have always been a part of US law, and as far as I know, the law of every other country. This isn't the same as getting kicked off the plane for wearing a MAGA hat (which has happened, and is despicable), or even a "Let's Go Brandon" shirt. Cursing is still widely considered vulgar and unacceptable in most social situations, even if people care less and less about it with each passing generation.
It seems based on the video, the young man's bigger crime was questioning the flight attendant. Had he just removed the sweatshirt or turned it inside out without comment it may have ended there. Airline people don't like to be delayed, and asking questions causes delays. That said, he was polite and he did comply, and now Delta Airlines has a PR nightmare on their hands because they couldn't let it go once he did what he was asked.
His story is remarkable, and I think we'll be hearing many good things about him in the years to come.
I'm a former airline employee too, and the captain has the final say on who rides on his airplane. Pilots might defer to the flight attendant in the case of a drunk or abusive passenger (don't want to have to deal with that mid-flight), but this certainly wasn't the case here. The second he complied it should have ended.
The left has very openly used the F bomb and Trump, repeatedly. Do you have any video of someone getting kicked out of anywhere due to the F Trump insignia.?
I'm not saying it has never happened where someone was kicked off for their political views (in fact, I said the exact opposite), but this has happened to non-conservatives too:
He was being a bit belligerent, even if he was in the right. Being forced to wear a facemask to fly is also completely political and arbitrary, and yet if you refuse to do it, no one expects you to not be kicked off the flight.
Again, I'm not saying the airline is right, but I am saying their response is not unprecedented.
KID COWBOY'S STORY: This 18-year-old has an amazing story. He lost BOTH parents 5 years ago and has raised himself since. Was working, supporting himself and was planning to go to college to follow his career dreams until he was banned because he refuses to get the experimental death shot. When he learned of the truckers People's Convoy, he hitchhiked to California and rode with truckers all the way across the country with the clothes on his back and his most precious possession, his father's dog tags.
The truckers adopted him and brought him into the Capitol 2 days ago to tell his story at the round table with Ron Johnson & Ted Cruz where all the media was present for the first time. (They had up until then totally ignored the convoy). After that he had to immediately get on a plane to get back home, and that's when this incident happened.
AND IT GOT WORSE - (not shown in this video). He agreed to turn his shirt inside out and did so, and was wearing a mask. But the NAZI DELTA PILOT threw him off the plane anyway.
Class action suit....Who will take this on we need Attorney to have the balls to carry this out.....Maybe Kyle Rittenhouse's Attorney's
Lawsuit is one in which a group of people with the same or similar injuries caused by the same product or action sue the defendant as a group. Other names for lawsuits brought by a number of people who suffered similar harm or losses are "mass tort litigation" and "multi-district litigation" ("MDL"). People seek justice in class action lawsuits when their injuries have been caused by defective products, including pharmaceutical drugs, motor vehicles and other consumer products, and medical devices. Other types of conduct over which people have sued as a class include consumer fraud. I borrowed this definition.

It doesn't mean this wasn't political either -- what I said was that it is not necessarily political.
Not to mention incidents like this one, which clearly don't just target conservatives: https://uk.news.yahoo.com/fuck-trump-bumper-sticker-breaks-152108469.html
A few stories from a 2015 "article" demonstrating people getting kicked off for things deemed indecent that had no political agenda;: https://www.vice.com/en/article/4wbggw/turns-out-airlines-will-kick-you-off-planes-for-having-the-word-fuck-on-your-shirt-if-they-feel-like-it-456
It's political. Pull your head out.
It is not necessarily political.

Nah freedom or fuck off

Kicked him off all because of a t-shirt? These idiots have no sense, no common decency, and definitely no intelligence.
Actually because of a hoodie, which as SJW knows, a racially-charged type of clothing.
It's asinine, but so is wearing a mask for a flight 🙃
You took your hit. Delta I'm done with you. Time to let these idiots rot in their grounded airplane I quit flying.
