What Goblins Argue About When They Argue About trickster

Reddit's /r/goblinposting subreddit has been arguing for sixteen hours about whether trickster counts as 'goblin-coded' or merely 'goblin-adjacent.' The mods have not weighed in.

The Goblin Verdict on trickster

The goblin closing argument on trickster consists of pointing at trickster, then pointing at the audience, then sitting back down. Goblin juries find this persuasive.
