Im on the fence about the Mandela effect. (affect and effect are very similar usage, i still get the two confused)
It's easy to believe as messed up as everything is, that something supernatural is happening. And I certainly believe that there are multiple reality's being played out at any moment. A side effect of how this universe manifests itself is my best guess.
But I think its more likely to be some kind of tool that can rewrite information on the internet, in real time. Sounds like bullshit I know. But the idea has been around a long time. In the movie Core, when everything is going crazy and they start planning their mission, they hire a hacker who writes a worm to scrub any noise about what is happening. It would be quite a powerful tool.
I was recently watching quantum leap, and in one of the episodes there is a picture of a quaker oats jar. This is the logo that I remember as a kid. I also know that each region has different branding. So alot of things can be explained through that.
But when I try to look up this logo through the internet, its like it never even existed.
But some of the "mandela" effects that get me.
Queen's - We are the champions. The song no longer ends with, "of the world."
The cornucopia from the fruit of the looms logo is gone.
And the monopoly guy doesnt wear a monocle anymore.
The fruit if the loom logo lost the cornucopia. That was a trendy thing for a few decades. No Mandela Effect - big corporate just don't care about history, when they need to focus on next quarter's profit.
We are the Champions had several versions, before the remasters. One or more included a longer ending, rather than trying to make it fit a radio friendly 3 minutes, with sections to fade and talk over. The original single, for that reason, did not have the, "of the world," ending. The album version in the US was different, but also ended in just, "champions." If you hunt the high seas for vinyl or cassette rips of their Greatest Hits, you'll probably find a country's version that is that way, as such a thing did exist, and many a FM station had that cut. Now, why they didn't include both, nobody knows for sure, as that's a common thing done, with bonus tracks. It's likely that nobody alive knows where that particular master is, though. You aren't misremembering that you heard it that way on the radio for many years.
Old music recordings are a total clusterfuck, with lots having gotten lost or destroyed, amongst all the mergers over the years, fires, and dumbasses being dumbasses. he big wings in the companies are neither musicians, music lovers, nor archivists, generally. There's no rewrite of history, just poor logistics, occasional negligence, and occasional stupidity. Some acts kept their own copies, and even as early restorations resulting in cooking tapes in the kitchen, you can bet they never regretted taking them and keeping up with them. We wouldn't have decent quality remasters of groups like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, or Genesis, to name just a few big ones, if they had trusted the record companies to keep their works for the long haul.
Most of The Mandela Effect isn't history being rewritten, but us having lossy memories, and also thinking that keeping information around for long periods of time, with accuracy, is an easy task. That stuff is hard, even with modern technology. The people dealing Quaker Oats logos, FI, had more important things to do, at the time, in their minds, than keep detailed historical records of box labeling. They probably didn't even remember which region got which logo after a couple years.
I won't say there aren't some genuine oddities, but 90% if it or more is mundane, and not reality retconning anything.

Maybe they go back in time, you know to kill someone's mother or something, and these are just ripple effects?
That's actually interesting. Never thought of it like that. Thanks for giving me something to chew on!
