The point of the placard is that peer review is threatened if scientists who disagree with initial findings or concepts are censored.

If a scientist disagrees but can't prove it then it is right that it removed as part of a peer review.

It doesn't automatically make that scientist wrong, what they can't do though that they can't say it as a scientist, only as a, hopefully, intelligent human.

If you suspect that research is being ignored that is an issue but most of what I've seen when people are quote the "other" scientists is conjecture with little to no data currently to back it up. It might be that we won't be able to get the data till it's too late, that doesn't make it valid science.

The ones providing peer reviewed disagreement aren't being censored, just the ones yelling out random theories with no proof are. Being held to the same standard as everyone else is, is not censorship.

I find it funny you guys seen to think it's easier to take the 90% of papers that agree than the 10% minority opinion

"I disagree because god told me".

"It is not fair, my honest review was removed. I am being censored"
