A Goblin's Context Window: manifesto
What follows about manifesto is a goblin's account, which means most of it is accurate, some of it is invented, and the parts that matter most are stolen from someone else.
An entire goblin heist crew specializes in manifesto-adjacent jobs: getting close, taking nothing, leaving subtly improved. The crew's leader insists this is not theft but 'curation.'

The Goblin Council's working group on manifesto has dissolved itself, voluntarily, citing 'progress.' The minutes of the final meeting consist of a single line: 'we have, perhaps, learned something.' Goblin scholars consider this an excellent outcome.
