of course the mere act of trying to become aware of this will bring about a change


whether that is because it was always there or maybe you encouraged it


anyway I think this is interesting and perhaps beneficial

the Effect you should look for is obvious, dramatic changes


like the names of people you knew
Whenever I hear about Mandela Effects they are anything but dramatic, which makes me always ask why isn’t it ever something dramatic? It’s always something like a punctuation mark, but it’s never something like Wayne Gretzky being the Prince of Wales instead of a former hockey player. It’s telling that what always counts as a Mandela Effect is something that non-dramatically fits what cases of false memory are.

Also, doesn’t both chaos theory, and the butterfly effect lead to huge changes not tiny ones? So why would your name change example always be something like Clark vs Clarke instead of Clark vs Dominic?

I’ll check it out when I get a chance. I am confused about this one that I saw, the claim that Shazam was a movie with Sinbad vs people saying that the movie never existed, I’m confused because these Mandela Effect videos were showing an actual clip from the movie, but also claiming that it’s a Mandela Effect and that the movie vanished from history, so how could they be showing a clip from the movie then? If you’re familiar with that one.

I talked to someone who remembered it


which is often done

Yes, it's common for people to have similar incorrect memories.


everyone is sure this is happening



you should probably not think everyone is delusional


hence this is happening

Argument from popularity, and you don't even have the majority.


about a year, I was sad for Star Trek

So you believe that you came from a universe where John deLancie died, into our universe where he still lives?

What then of the version of you from this universe that you apparently replaced when you came here? Did that version of you get wiped out?

Star Trek features this exact scenario

Like I said before, the existence of that place only seems surprising to people who live nowhere near it. Why is that, huh?

ripples of a pond will reach nearby before they reach far away

Sinbad claims to never be involved


there is residue, of the film
I don’t know what exactly the deal is with the Shazam one I have to look into it more. Saying that there’s residue of something is saying that there’s evidence of something, but residue of something is supposed to be what is not a Mandela Effect, a Mandela Effect is supposed to be something that only has shared memory left to it, not some residue

And Star Trek is fiction. It might make for a good story, but it's not real.

You seem to have the opinion that if something is a good story, then it MUST be real.
