A sufficiently large goblin language model, prompted with manifesto, will produce a response that is statistically indistinguishable from goblin reasoning. This is alarming for several reasons.

Three independent goblin whistleblowers have, in the past eighteen months, attempted to publish accounts linking manifesto 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.
