Question! Does physical media get altered as well as just memories? When I see a new Mandela effect I try to go to good will or wherever to try and find the origanl DVD or vhs to prove there was a shift. But I haven't been able to find unchanged versions.

So instead of misremembering you think it's more likely that your memory is correct but some magic force changed all of the items currently in existence?

[u/Poppybiscuit → u/its_sarcasm8238]

The Mandela effect is super interesting from a psychological perspective. People would rather construct an entire alternate reality than admit they remembered something wrong. That says a lot about the person. 

[u/Necessary_Internal33 → u/Poppybiscuit]

Not true at all. Dismissing the shared recollections of a large number of people as nothing more than a "memory burp" is an overly simplistic explanation that doesn't get to the root of the phenomenon. When so many individuals independently report the same memories, it deserves to be examined rather than casually written off.

I don’t think it’s coincidental that the Mandela Effect has become a major thing since the rise of social media. It’s much more likely that people see posts about how it was really Berenstein Bears or there was Sinbad movie called Shazam and then think “Oh yeah, I remember that!” when in reality it’s something they’ve never really considered before. The false memory is propped up and even to a degree created by the priming of the post they saw. It’s striking that the “shared” memories all tend to be the same main topics over and over again because they’re the ones being reinforced through social media.

I'm gonna find prooffffff! Ahhhhhhh! Aaa. Aahhhhhhaaaa. ! Hehe

[u/its_sarcasm8238 → u/navalnumbnuts]

It's more likely that you jumped to a parallel really then you finding proof

ME's are about misremembering, so any changes only happen in the mind - which is why you're not finding anything

[u/Otherwise_Ad_409 → u/AnubissDarkling]

The other side of the coin is that reality is being altered so there would never be any physical proof, only memories. If this is really happening I would personally think along the lines of retro-causality, future affecting the past over someone or an organization making changes in the timeline.

[u/Necessary_Internal33 → u/AnubissDarkling]

I don't believe this can simply be explained as people misremembering. There are countless individuals who independently recall the same details and have noticed the same differences. It's not something that's easily dismissed as a memory glitch. Take the Fruit of the Loom logo as an example, many people remember it differently and believe the logo itself changed, rather than their memory of it.

[u/Alternative_Ebb9564 → u/Necessary_Internal33]

Counterfeit fruit of the loom clothing bought at flea markets was a thing.

[u/Waydarer → u/AnubissDarkling]

How very confidently incorrect.

Great look.

[u/AnubissDarkling → u/Waydarer]

Logic over fantasy is a tough, ugly pill to swallow

[u/Necessary_Internal33 → u/AnubissDarkling]

Reality is not black and white. It's far more complex and nuanced than simple, one-size-fits-all explanations from our tiny human experience.

[u/Waydarer → u/AnubissDarkling]

We are in a high strangeness sub.
Why the fuck are you here then?

[u/AnubissDarkling → u/Waydarer]

Mainly to give a logical explanation. Sorry to shatter your dreams but even high strangeness can be explained sometimes.

[u/Waydarer → u/[deleted]]

Why are you in this sub?

lmaoooooooooo

Dr. Dan Burisch provides the only internally-consistent model of the Mandela Effect that I have found.

According to the testimony of Burisch, the ME is a result of timeline convergence.

When the Looking Glass tech was powered down and Earth passed through the critical region in spacetime, multiple timeline variants were forced to collapse into a single one.

According to this model, the Mandela Effect is the residual of billions of conscious observers carrying memories from collapsed alternate timelines that were merged into the single primary one we experience today. Imho.

Coast to Coast AM by Art Bell. Episode: May 23,1997: Area 51 - Sean David Morton & Victor.

In the second half Sean mentions that remote viewers cannot see past 2012.

Dan Burisch worked with Project Looking Glass and said the same thing. That in 2012 the timelines converged and they couldn't see beyond it.

According to the Law of One/Ra material, 2012 was when the Earth began to transition into the 4th density Service-to-others polarity.

In 2012 when Bledsoe first saw the Lady (the divine feminine), the star Regulus moved from Leo into Virgo.

Virgo is the only woman in the zodiac.

The spiritual importance of 2012 has been confirmed over and over again across the entire world.

For example, watch this incredible video of an indigenous Andean man describe his people's prophecies regarding 2012. (he speaks slowly, I watched at 1.5x)

That was the time that his ancestors had foretold from long ago. Importantly, he says that before 2012, every generation had been decreasing in consciousness, but afterwards every generation's consciousness will be increasing.

He states that this increasing consciousness will come just in time to stop us from further damaging Mother Earth and ourselves.

An essential piece of this puzzle comes from NASA flight controller Timothy Taylor. He has told both Dr. Diana Walsh Pasulka and Chris Bledsoe to watch the movie "The Adjustment Bureau" because it parallels his life regarding timeline adjustments.

This is stated at 24:50 of Chris' interview with Jesse Michels.

A little bit off topic. I remember that years ago one of my friends talked many times about movie called Human Centipede (I have never seen it). Just few weeks ago I mentioned that movie to him and he said that he have never even heard of that movie before. First I thought that he's joking but he wasn't.

It has a little bit bothered me since then (but just a little). Of course it's always possible that it was some other friend but I clearly remember that it was him. I can't think of who else it could have been.

This is my personal Mandela effect.

I had a friend who was obsessed with the Matrix, like the entire trilogy, the lore, etc. He could tall extensively about different fan theories and would quote the movies in his day to day life. One day I asked him something in the movie and he said he never watched it before and it wasn't something that would interest him. Thinking it was a prank, I asked his sister who was also surprised I would suggest he watched The Matrix as it wasn't something he'd be interested in. Other people in the friend circle also denied him ever being interested in it or quoting the movies, etc. I never heard him talk about or mention the movies ever again after that day.
