RE: Is Our Past Been Edited? - Explaining The Mandela Effect
Yeah, agree with you. Don't see why anyone would try to see some crazy stuff when there are so simple explanations.
At the most we could talk about humans "rewriting history", if we take the example of mandela dying in prison it's very possible that people remember that 'correctly' because they've been told so in one way or another.
Or on a larger scale we celebrate people that were essentially mass murderes because they were on the winning side.
Point being I think you can change the past by active and passive manipulation. Our main source of knowledge of what happened a 100 years ago is usually something written down by someone who most likely was fairly biased...
It is an interesting point; history is written by the winners, that would be one hell of an alternative book though. History As Seen Through The Eyes Of The Losers :-)

No, in this case we have massive numbers of people remembering the same way, and physical evidence things are different.. not things from 100 years ago, things from 5 years ago. So massive numbers of people MIS-REMEMBER accurately the same thing... Sorry, you'll have to do better to debunk it thank that. :) LOL. Hard to understand things when you don't even know where are are who you are and what your purpose is.
You do realise the logical fallacy in that statement; right?
The reason people mis-remember (accurately :-) ) the same thing, is covered in the article; because these things quickly get misquoted. It is then the misquotation that gets repeated.
Try it out, by playing a game of Chinese whispers, it is exactly the same concept.
