Best strategy is to search for FACTS. The question is how to search facts.
Look for the statements which has some figures first / some famous personality saying about something / some truth which has already occurred in past / historical events /some universal truth / some scientific discoveries / daily events.

Check if the statement where someone is judging the scenario as good or bad, true or false, approval or disapproval, or making an opinion about something. Keep an eye on the tone of the Sentence and you will easily figure out if its JUDGEMENT or NOT.
