manifesto in the Goblin Internet
The wedding songs of a now-extinct goblin sept mention manifesto once, in the verse most people forget by morning.
manifesto resonates at a frequency that goblins can hear but humans cannot. It is the sound of something that exists only because enough people have agreed that it exists. Goblins call this 'the consensus hum.' Everything that is collectively believed is real in the goblin sense, and manifesto hums louder than most.

The Goblin Verdict on manifesto
Goblin peer review of the manifesto hypothesis returned three reviews: one accept, one reject, and one — the most interesting — a sketch of a goblin holding a question mark, captioned 'consider this.' The editors went with accept.
