Non-intervention principle

This tool does not tell you what to believe, buy, or vote for. It helps you inspect how the information is structured before judging.

  • ✓ Separate facts from opinions.
  • ✓ Attach a source and verification date to every factual claim.
  • ✓ Summarize each side in a form that side would recognize.
  • ✓ Name the words and emphasis that create the frame.
