Mandela Effect

What’s the point of that sub? It’s like no one there believes in it. No one ever gets to talk about Mandela Effects.

I will die on the hill that it was BerenSTEIN Bears. I could read very young, and while my mom was grocery shopping, I’d read from the book stand. It was the 80s in a small town, in a small store, so I was ok being alone while my mom shopped. I remember wondering how to pronounce it. Why do I have that memory if it never was spelled that way?!

That’s my biggest one I just can’t get over. I also remember riding in the car with my mom and asking what does “objects in mirror MAY BE closer than they appear” meant.

The big one for me is the car in the JFK assassination has SIX people in it instead of only four people like it did before.

But yeah, lots of naysayers on the Mandela Effect sub.

I feel like they showed us that video just so they could later test and see how we remembered it.

Like it's an insane thing to show children! It's a snuff film!

(I remember 4 seating positions, not 6)

The day I found out what Mandela effects were (it was like 2018 and I had actually googled "why isn't the sun yellow anymore lol) I was reading a thread about the JFK thing. I was like "there is no way" so I YouTubed the Zapruder video. I was like "what the hell are they all going on about, there are clearly 4 people in the car". Went back to the thread, then went back to the video again after a few minutes and it had CHANGED. I swear to God you could give me a lie detector test and I would pass. That video literally changed in real time for me.

I wonder if that indicates that the Kennedy ME is an emergent effect of the sun being brighter and generally more of a bastard that hurts us?

One lead to another for you.

Th VW logo was like this for me.
