    It's not dishonest, it's a clear signal that your opinion isn't wanted.

An opinion or belief not being wanted does not imply it's a bad opinion or belief.

If one sees an objective belief that they disagree with then I think they should try to refute it not censor it or it's dishonest.

If one sees a subjective opinion they disagree with then I think they should just leave it or debate it if they feel like it not censor it or it's dishonest.

It doesn't matter if the opinion/belief is offensive or not. An offensive opinion/belief is just as likely to be true as a non-offensive one.
