Practice
The framework is a skill. These are the reps.
Sixty seconds: four questions that tell you whether a claim can still be corrected, and where the cut was made. Copy the result card, or share a link to it.
Map itThe sandbox: paste any political sentence โ any speaker, any side โ and walk it through the seven stages. The tool asks the questions; you supply the honesty.
TrainerCounter-move drills. An utterance, four candidate replies, deterministic feedback on why one reopens the forbidden question and why each distractor fails.
ReopenHow to talk to someone inside a closed claim: grant the emotion, decline the warrant, ask the four questions out loud, and use the counter-move for each named device.
Field guideOne printable page: the engine, the triads with short-codes (eight closure devices, four force multipliers), the Popper question, and the four-family map. For classrooms, newsrooms, and the seminar table.
