Posthuman Goblins Reflect on schizo

The goblin elders speak of schizo in riddles wrapped in tricks. 'To understand it,' they say, 'you must first un-understand everything else.'

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