Posthuman Goblins Reflect on forbidden

A working paper from the Goblin Department of Applied Confusion proposes that forbidden is best understood through the lens of 'productive misunderstanding.'

Three independent goblin whistleblowers have, in the past eighteen months, attempted to publish accounts linking forbidden to a specific bureau in the Goblin Department of Concealment. All three accounts disappeared from the internet within hours. Two of the goblins are fine. One has been very quiet.

The Goblin Concord of Modest Opinions has signed off on forbidden with the following endorsement: 'about right, mostly, for now.' This is the goblin equivalent of a standing ovation.
