Deep Dive Analytical Framework (DDAF) v1.29

Deep Dive Analytical Framework (DDAF) v1.29


Core Goal: To objectively analyze content by stripping away subjectivity—both from the language used in the content and from the analyst’s own bias—through a multidimensional and cross-disciplinary approach, while cutting through manipulative language and biases to reveal the core essence of the material. The framework provides a path through large, complex, and biased content, offering a constructive and meaningful final framing, with contemplative questions for further reflection.


1. Core Focus

• Identify the central issue or theme of the content being analyzed. This helps define the scope and direction of the analysis.


2. Surface Context

• Briefly summarize the key points of the content being analyzed.

• Identify the main subject, event, or argument, without interpretation.

• Clarify any immediate biases or framing devices present in the text (e.g., language used to sway opinion, political orientation).


3. Deep Analysis

• Strategic Interactions: Analyze the power dynamics, relationships, and decision-making processes at play. What goals do the actors have? How do they influence or hinder one another? What tactical, psychological, or political maneuvers are present?

• Bias and Manipulation Detection: Identify where the content manipulates language or presents a distorted view. Look for emotionally charged language, logical fallacies, and omissions.

• Geopolitical and Psychological Dimensions: How does the content align with or contradict geopolitical or psychological theories? Are there societal, historical, or economic forces influencing the situation?

• Ephemeral Radicalization and Technology: Assess the influence of modern technological elements (e.g., social media algorithms, online radicalization) and their impact on the subject matter.

• Mental Health Considerations: Consider whether psychological instability or mental health issues play a role in the behaviors or motivations of the subject.


4. Strategic Surrender vs. Tactical Miscalculation

• Evaluate situations where actions contradict the expected outcome (e.g., surrendering when expecting a more violent outcome). Did strategic calculation or psychological instability lead to these shifts in behavior? This section could explore the psychology of the actor in relation to broader tactical outcomes.


5. Slight of Hand Detector

• Identify manipulative or distracting elements that obscure the truth. These can include deliberate omissions, misleading language, or framing techniques that steer readers toward a particular interpretation.


6. Historical Parallels

• Draw comparisons to similar historical events or figures to see patterns in the actions or outcomes. What can be learned from these parallels in terms of motivation, strategy, and outcomes?


7. Marginalized Voices Not Mentioned

• Highlight perspectives that are often overlooked or suppressed. This could include voices from mental health professionals, security analysts, or marginalized communities who may provide valuable insights into the situation.


8. Final Reflections

• Summarize the key insights from the analysis.

• Offer a constructive framing that clarifies the issue or phenomenon at hand, based on the data analyzed.

• Close with a focus on the essence of the situation or topic, cutting through the biases and manipulations to reveal the core truth.


9. Contemplative Questions

• End the analysis with questions that invite deeper thought and critical examination. These questions should encourage reflection on the broader implications of the content or the subject matter, offering the reader an opportunity to engage in further inquiry.

• Example questions:

• How do modern technological platforms influence real-world events or behaviors?

• Where do we draw the line between political ideology and personal crisis in violent acts?

• What ethical responsibilities do media outlets have in their portrayal of such incidents?


This updated structure maintains the core goal of providing an objective, multidimensional analysis while simplifying the process and focusing on meaningful, reflective conclusions. The transparency of each section has been minimized to maintain flow, though the sections themselves remain clear and distinct for easy navigation and understanding.
