Censuré deux fois, les bras m’en tombent !1) Pour un commentaire sur l’absence ou présence de rog (donc le micro-perti de la dérogation et et celui de la rogation, c’est logique).2) Pour un commentaire notant cette première censure.Tout ceci alors que très récemment les pires insanités racistes ont été proférées dans une rubrique précédente sans provoquer de réaction particulière.Messieurs les modérateurs ne vous gênez pas, allez-y de votre troisième coup de ciseau, aussi inepte que les deux premiers.
